Brown Belt Sudoku® (Martial Arts Puzzles Series)

I like this series but maybe should have thought twice before buying the Brown Belt. It is truly difficult, just be warned.

A little too easy for me. A few years ago, this book would be perfect.

I had always done Longo’s books for years and I tried M Rios. Brown. Too easy. Back to Longo for a challenge. spiral is great too

No wonder these puzzles are so easy........I bought the wrong book! I was so happy when my replacement book arrived so I sat down to work the first puzzle and it was a whiz-through, the same for the second, third, fourth, fifth, and on and on until I really looked at the cover this morning and discovered I had bought the Brown Belt Sudoku by Michael Rios. Drat! and this even deserves a Double Drat! The good thing I can definitely say about this collection of puzzles is that the pages are perforated. They can easily be removed from the book in order to solve them. I always have to use a box cutter to remove puzzles from the binding of these types of puzzle collections because it makes it so much easier for me to work and solve the puzzle. This book has perforated pages, my favorite books do not.I've been doing the Brown Belt Sudoku puzzles by Frank Longo for years, buying the same book over and over because I love the difficulty level and will never in a million years remember how to solve each puzzle after I've gone through 300 of them. I like that the Longo puzzles are solvable, but lots of the puzzles really make me stretch and work for it. When I got this new book out of the package I never even bothered to look at the author. So...........I will keep solving these EASY puzzles whenever my brain needs some relaxing time from the Longo Brown Belt puzzles, but, believe me, I will be much more careful about paying attention to the author from now on. I really wish the covers of the books were not so similar. I'm off to place my order for the book I really wanted in the first place.....by Frank Longo. I've been solving Sudoku puzzles for at least 25 years now, even before they became known by the Japanese name. I've worked all the degrees of the martial arts books and settled on the brown belt because those puzzles don't make me crazy like the black belt puzzles can. Enjoy finding your own level of difficulty.

This is the second time I have bought this Sudoko book and the first one I erased and solved again

I am addicted to Sudoku and this book has puzzles that are hard but doable

These books are perfect, I love that the are all the same difficulty and the size of the book. I do these in bed and do find it slightly hard to hold up, but overall really great.

Good difficulty for me
