Crossword master Thomas Joseph makes it simple for solvers who aren’t crossword mavens, with 100 puzzles that won’t strain the brain…too much. There’s none of that arcane vocabulary found only in crosswords and no strange clues that demand esoteric knowledge. Plus, the puzzles are just the right length, with shorter words that generally don’t go over eight letters and are usually less. Among the questions: NBA Team (just 4 letters—Nets); Road goo (tar); X-File topic (UFO) and ___ Vegas. It’s fun for all!
