Computer Generated Puzzles That Miss The Mark
These are not good crossword puzzle books. I've been doing crosswords for over 45 yrs and know a good, clever clue when I see one! These are all computer generated: a) you can tell by the number of black squares - over 39 = bad compiler or computer generated and b) by the clues often 'mismatching' the answers - again bad compiler or the computer not being able to get nuances like the human brain. Don't waste your money if you are a real crossword fan, they are annoying and very unsatisfying.
