Ever since the first Kakuro puzzle appeared in a British newspaper in the autumn of 2005, it has gathered more and more fans, all caught up in the fascination of solving this absorbing brain-teaser. Gareth Moore, author of the first Kakuro book to appear in the UK, has now produced a second book of mind-boggling, compelling Kakuro puzzles - Quick Kakuro: And How To Solve It. Unlike the puzzles in his first book (which has now sold a staggering 52,000 copies in the UK alone), these can all be solved by a competent player within a few minutes, but be warned: that doesn't necessarily mean they're easy!
