Missing Letter Hidden Word Sudoku Collection 5: MAP, NTH, ODE: Mingling Words with Sudoku

When you finish a classic 9x9 puzzle using the digits 1-9, you're done but you're not really satisfied. You want more than just a feeling of mere accomplishment.

But in Word Sudoku, you discover the solution word or phrase as you solve the puzzle. You begin with an anagram-a respelling-of the solution. For example, a 9x9 Word Sudoku puzzle could use the nine letters in the anagram I GOT CURLS. When you solve the puzzle, you've spelled out the respelling of that anagram: GIRL SCOUT. Likewise, from the letters in the anagram A RINGLET, you could face five different Word Sudoku puzzles spelling out RELATING, ALTERING, ALERTING, TRIANGLE, and INTEGRAL (not to mention LARGE NIT or RING TALE).

This collection of three books in one volume takes this idea further.

• Every puzzle anagram in each book in this collection shares three letters: MAP, NTH, ODE, respectively. Since you know this, these letters are missing from each puzzle's anagram in each book!


• You face a variety of puzzle sizes-not just the classic 9x9. You'll also find the easy 4x4 and 6x6, the unusual 8x8, the difficult 10x10, the devilish 12x12-and the unexpected, even fiendish 5x5 and 7x7 (which you may not have ever encountered before this)!
