I slept in snatches that night. I always do whenever I have a big day ahead of me. I swung my feet off the bed and onto the carpeted floor. Two quick strides took me to the switch on the wall, I snapped it on and the electric bulb overhead came alight. I stared at [...]
Sudoku, or number placement, puzzles are sweeping the country. Even though the game involves numbers, it is not mathematical. And people who feel they don’t have a good vocabulary will choose them in preference to crossword puzzles. Soduku is nothing more than logic.

King Htok
“I warn you,” he said, “if you try to scratch or bite my men I will kill you!” Said King Htok, sitting on his stone throne, instructing Siren in the niceties of war, and fair play: she merely snarled at him, and them, them being the soldiers that subdued her, the two.
