More of the same, which was exactly what I wanted. Cluedo meets sudoko, good fun.

Entertaining. I loved the first so I knew I would love the second. Fun, campy puzzle book where each story is connected from entry to entry. Loved the humor in each case, especially with item and location descriptions. G.T. Karber doesn't miss!

Another collection of logic puzzles featuring Deductive Logico and his partner, the esoteric Inspector Irratino. This was cute, but I thought not as successful as the first volume—the narrative arc being conveyed mostly via the answer key was more convoluted and difficult to follow, and as weird as it is to say about a puzzle book, the side-lining of Logico and Irratino's relationship was a bit disappointing. Having more emotional stakes would help with the pacing issues. Again, weird to say about a puzzle book, I also feel like there should be less space given to the elementary ones, and more to the most difficult ones (and the complexity level could be stepped up there).

Another excellent puzzle book that kept me engaged and excited to play. The plot was once again fun and engaging, encouraging me to play just one more puzzle!

The story this time is less meet-cute/vengeance quest murder mystery time and more political shenanigans (and it didn't seem quite as well edited), but it has just as much charm and humor as the first, and it's still, largely, a book of logic puzzles, and do those ever get old??
