Mainly just everyday words here, nothing very obscure… but, oh, those sneaky definitions!

Certainly got my money’s worth here!

This was just great fun, consisting entirely of pretty common words, but all clued ingeniously enough to keep it interesting to the end.

There are a couple unusual—even NHO—words here, but all was clued so cleverly and entertainingly well that my solve was a steady romp.

Some twisty turns here.

Certainly one of the easiest Dean puzzles I’ve worked, but no less entertaining for that, and flawlessly executed.

Starting with the longer answers first, I filled in most of this rapidly… until the last handful, which took almost as long as all the rest!

An entertaining exercise, as always, where tightly packed clues explode in the mind with a flash of light.

There’s a good number of that kind of clue here, along with similar ones where the parts just aren’t presented in consecutive order. A charade is usually the last thing I look for…

I felt at times that this one pushed the envelope, and am curious about the other solvers’ experiences.
