Just hard enough for a little mental gymnastics without making you tear your hair out.
Younger people may not identify with clues refering to old politicians.

Brilliant, have not done cryptic puzzles for a long time, really challenging although sometimes ultra vague on how an answer is constructed.

Really good book of nicely-challenging cryptic crosswords; a convenient size to carry on a bus or train in a bag though might be a little bulky in your pocket.

I love these books of telegraph crosswords - and the chance to cheat just a little, if stuck, by checking out a solution or two in the back. I wouldn't be without one of these books and find them very good value.

I am a cryptic crossword fanatic and the level set by this book is difficult and uses up my little grey cells every day! Perfect for these long cold days when at 78 yo there is little to do outside. A great gift for the cryptic crossword fan.

The person I bought this for is very pleased with it. I'm glad it isn't mine, I can't do them.

This book of crosswords and solutions was all I was expecting. Having the solutions at the back of the book is great, although it does tend to encourage 'cheating'. Delivery was quick.

Good book
Just wish that I was better at cryptic crosswords. This might just be me but they seem to interleave an easyish one with a difficult one and so on. Good mental gymnastics.
