I received Sudoku Easy to Hard Presented by Will Shortz- Vol. III as a gift. It is a fun book with 100 Sudoku puzzles but I didn't find them very hard or the challenge that I was looking for. It is better than many but not the best I have worked through over the years. It would be a great book for a beginner to Sudoku as it starts easy and moves to harder puzzles.
