What are your thoughts on Bruce Cervons Castle Notebooks?
Rachmaninov Special user 833 Posts	Posted: Apr 29, 2019 04:28 pm 0 Castle notebooks ? Not so good. They reached a legendary status they didn’t deserve. The best material had been already published in the L&L series.
Richard Kaufman Inner circle 2384 Posts	Posted: May 12, 2019 01:21 pm 0 There is a ton of good material hiding in the Castle notebooks. You have to dig for it. Mind you, I only paid $200 for the set of 5 (one of the lucky ones), but it's well worth it.
Rachmaninov Special user 833 Posts	Posted: May 13, 2019 07:54 pm 0 I have to go back to them !
magic.42 New user 57 Posts	Posted: May 15, 2019 11:15 pm 0 Bruce Cervons Castle Notebooks @ $800...... At first I was a bit disappointed, but Im a puzzle lover and as time passed, reading through the notebooks, I started finding things I did not know or had forgotten. If I had to purchased them all over again? I would most likely pass on them; however, if someone offered me a thousand dollar for them now I wound not take it. I feel that their Keepers. I believe there are still a lot of treasures hidden inside them that I have yet to discover.
