Product Description

Volume 8 of this popular series presents a new batch of 50 original crostics by Michael Ashley, arguably America's favorite author of these hybrid puzzles. Crostics combine crosswords with quotations and Ashley always hits just the right note in both areas. His clues range from classic literature to cutting-edge computer jargon; the authors of his quotes run the gamut from Leo Tolstoy to Richard Feynman to Letterman.
