Theme-A-Crostics: Modern Novels - Paperback

From the raft of novels available to the modern reader, we've picked a collection that includes a variety of genres by a some well-known authors and some lesser-known and foreign ones. Some may be your favorites already; some you might want to add to your list.

Accompanying the solution to each of the 40 puzzles is a short description of the work, some biographical information about the author, and where to find more detail - an appropriate add-on to the usual challenging fun for fans of acrostics.

Note that the clue misprints and the evidently disliked coincidences of two letters in a single word in the text tying back to the same clued word have been considerably reduced in copies printed since the beginning of November 2021.
