Another fun Wordoku puzzle book

Like Frank Longo's other letter based Sudoku books (The Official Book of Wordoku: Sudoku Puzzles for Word Lovers, TRIVIAL PURSUIT Sudoku (Trivial Pursuit) and others), this book has you solving the Sudoku's to spell out a word either across, down or on a diagonal. What makes this one different is that the grid is only 7 x 7 and because of that is in a jigsaw pattern of irregular shapes. Solving the puzzles takes a double shift in your thinking, first to try to find the word that is the "solution" word and also to just solve the jigsaw aspect of the Sudoku. Definitely worth adding to your collection of Sudoku variations.
