Snakes on a Sudoku

This is by far the most interesting type of Sudoku! Some books include a few puzzles of this type and leave you wishing that you didn't have hundreds of boring 9X9 squares left to solve. I'm ordering a new copy to do over because I haven't been able to find another book as good as this!

If you're familiar with sudoku, a number puzzle in which you must complete a partially filled-in number grid based on one basic rule, you will enjoy this themed tie-in. Instead of the 3x3 boxes within the larger 9x9 box, the puzzles contain 9-unit winding snakes, and you must meet the usual requirements of a sudoku puzzle using the unusual winding shapes. This adds interest to the popular puzzle and is a clever idea by promoters. There are 51 easy, 51 medium, 51 hard and 17 very hard puzzles. Answers are included.
