This extra-value collection of 200 Los Angeles Times Sunday crosswords is a great bargain for anyone who loves fun-filled, pun-filled puzzles. The first omnibus collection from the LA Times was amazingly popular, and this second volume follows right in its footsteps.
I had a great time solving all 200 while on the 'throne'. Being an Angeleno I've always cut Sylvia & Barry some slack, the wieldiness, or lack thereof, of their tomes notwithstanding. And it sure beats buying the unwieldy (left-wing) Times for a single puzzle. As for NY Times' Shortz, I find him to be arrogantly obscure, assuming his 'solvers' hold Master's degrees at the very least.
