I've been solving kenkens on and off for while now but this book has made the puzzles even more fun for me. I used to just do the basic puzzles but with the tactics in the book i can now do even more challenging ones. It seriously keeps you sharp. I'd recommend to anyone.

Great book! I play KK's every time I'm on the bus, train, etc. Its an awesome time keeper and brain buster. I assume its also great for keeping your kids occupied (I'm a student and do not yet have any kids).

KenKen is phenomenal. So addictive and so fun. I highly recommend that you all try it out. It's even better than Sudoku (and I love Sudoku!).
Enjoy!
