The Times The Listener Crosswords by Derek Arthur

This new book presents 60 of the best The Listener crosswords, the famously challenging cryptic crosswords from The Times that have attracted a passionate following. These innovative and playful puzzles are all themed, and many feature unusual grids or unconventional ways of inserting the answers to add to the enjoyment. They are graded by difficulty, and a solvers guide and solutions notes will help everyone to share in the fun and frustration.
The latest book from Chambers is The Times The Listener CrosswordsThis is a collection of the best puzzles from between 1996 and 2000. They were chosen by taking into account the comments expressed by solvers, as Derek Arthur explains in his introduction. Interestingly, the puzzles are presented not in chronological order but in order of their difficulty. So the book starts with an easy Pen Names by Smokey and ends with the AGC winning All Square by Dimitry. This is an important collection, especially as it may be the last Listener Collection if sales do not meet the wishes of the publishers. I have made this book our Book of the Month on the Crossword Centre. - Derek Harrison, Crossword News
