The Official Book of Hanjie: 150 Puzzles -- Follow the Number Clues to Find a Picture
Hanjie (pronounced Han-JEA to rhyme with ninja) is the massively popular Japanese puzzle craze. Number clues and simple logic lead you to fill in some boxes while leaving others blank. If you fill in the boxes correctly, a picture will emerge! This game is perfect for anyone addicted to Sudoku and looking for a new challenge.
Puzzle master Timothy E. Parker, named by Guinness World Records as “the world’s most syndicated puzzle compiler,” provides instructions and 100 mind-bending puzzles ranging from easy to medium to hard. The harder the puzzle, the more subtle and beautiful the resulting picture will be.
How to The numbers tell you the sequence of black squares you must fill in. Each group of black squares is separated by at least one white (empty) square. Successfully completing the puzzle will reveal a surprising picture.

I love Hanjie. It appeals to my logic skills without bogging me down in horrible "Jane is wearing red but is twice as old as Jared" bull. This book, though, has some pretty horrible half-baked Hanjie.
I get the impression that the creators of this book just made some pixelated pictures and worked backwards, never checking to see if what they had created was too easy, or impossible, or fun at all. From now on, I'm keeping an eye out for Plume Publishing. They aren't getting my money again. Unless it's for more Hanjie.
