Easy sudoku is the level you can solve by scanning: look along a row, a column or a box and find the square where only one number fits, without pencilling candidates into the margins. This book sets its level the simple way, by starting clues — 36 in every grid, four more than the medium book and eight more than the hard one, held the same from the first page to the last. It is built to be solved every day rather than admired occasionally, and it is the book we point beginners to first: the fuller the starting grid, the sooner a scan tends to turn up a square with only one possible number.

Anyone who wants to unwind
An easy grid occupies the part of your mind that would otherwise be scrolling, and asks nothing stressful of it.

Easy sudoku questions
Is this a good sudoku book for beginners?
Yes, if you know the basic rule: each row, column and 3×3 box holds the numbers 1 to 9 once. Every grid starts with 36 of its 81 numbers filled in, the most of any of our adult sudoku books, and the level stays the same from the first puzzle to the last.
What makes a sudoku puzzle easy?
An easy sudoku can usually be finished by scanning alone: find a square where only one number fits, or a number with only one place left in its row, column or box. This book sets its level by the number of starting clues, which is a rough guide rather than a guarantee. Sudoku difficulty levels explained covers what else decides it.
How big are the puzzles?
The pages are 8.5 × 11 inches with twelve puzzles to a page. If you would rather have bigger grids, the large print sudoku book puts two on each page of the same size.
Are the answers included?
Yes. Solutions to all 1,008 puzzles are printed at the back, numbered to match.
