Sudoku Beyond the Basics

by Gina De Lorenzi

When I began studying techniques to solve harder Sudokus, I found the internet was full of eager solvers who loved this game so much they had almost created a monster of confusion. There is a real need to simplify advanced concepts and techniques so that anyone can learn them.

Sudoku Beyond the Basics takes puzzle solving several levels beyond the basic skill levels most Sudoku lovers already know. Being able to solve the Sudoku puzzles found in weekend newspapers and the typical books sold in bookstores is the best preparation for learning the advanced concepts and techniques found in this clearly written self paced tutorial.

Sudoku Beyond the Basics is 134 pages with 134 illustrations and 44 coloured examples. The first chapter is a review of terms and skills in order to establish consistent language in the names of techniques so there will be no confusion as solvers progress through the chapters.

Sudoku Beyond the Basics is a planned progression in the presentation of new concepts that has been carefully developed to make learning fun. The author anticipates your questions as the techniques become more involved. She knows where and how confusion arises and writes in a conversational style.
