As mentioned in discussing the upgrade to Casey Loves Trains, print-on-demand publishing makes it easy to correct errors and alter an already-published book.
Earlier this week More Tessellating Mazes underwent a minor revision in which three mazes were replaced. In all cases the replacing maze had been developed after the publication of More Tessellating Mazes and had not found a use in another maze book. Two of the replaced mazes had patterns that were in other books. One had been used in Casey Loves Trains, published before More Tessellating Mazes, and another was used in a Puzzling Typography book. The third maze that was replaced had the same flying-geese pattern as another maze in More Tessellating Mazes but made mazes in a different way.
The replacement pattern was closely related to the flying-geese pattern. A few changes to the goose
shape resulted in a flying-duck shape that made a pattern that I liked a
lot. It is now side by side with the better of the flying geese mazes. (If you use the "Look Inside" feature on amazon.com, you can see the new duck maze on page 7.)
I submitted the changes in the morning and they were approved in the evening, so the book was out-of-print for less than a full day.
If you would like 70 fairly easy mazes that feature a wide variety of tessellation patterns, More Tessellating Mazes may be right for you.
