Crossword Ease - The Secret Language of Crossword Puzzles

Crossword Ease - The Secret Language of Crossword Puzzles (Word Buff's Totally Unfair Word Game Guides Book 1)

Do You Know What ELAND, DACHA, and ATTAR Mean?

In this little book I'll help you decode the clues that stop most of us from finishing our morning newspaper crossword puzzle. I'm talking about those crazy words you never seem to meet in the real world, but which turn up time and time again to ruin your morning solve.

Don't worry. You won't forget them after you've seen them come to life in pictures, spent a few minutes reading their entertaining story, and browsed the typical crossword clues used to warn you that they may be lurking.

And while you're at it, you'll learn a whole bunch of fascinating stuff about how puzzles are made and how their makers try to trick us at every corner!

But the obscure words you'll master in these colorful pages will prepare you for much more than crossword puzzles. You can use them to kick butt in Scrabble, Words With Friends, Lexulous, Text Twist, Spelling Bees, or a million other vocabulary games.

Or, if you prefer, just intimidate your friends by casually sprinkling your dinner party conversations with words like RIA, EMIR, and OGEE.

Oh, and in case you're wondering about the book's title: 'Crossword Ease' is a play on the term 'Crosswordese', which is the in-house lingo used by crossword puzzle aficionados to describe obscure words that turn up repeatedly in crosswords.
