Cryptic crosswords don’t come much more straightforward than this morning’s offering from Jason (a hiccup at 27ac. excepted). Smart, tidy, by-the-book and breezily enjoyable – thank-you, Jason.

Monday Prize Crossword/June 3
A pleasant puzzle by Crux which contained a bit more cryptic-flavoured definitions than usual. But as my best friends know, it is perhaps my favourite device ……..

Super themed puzzle from Gozo but consumed in a bit of a rush today as I was very late getting started, a shame that I did not have time to savour this puzzle more. Thank you Gozo.

This was a really enjoyable puzzle for me – not too easy as to be over quickly, and not too difficult as to require long pauses. On the other hand, progress was smooth and even right through. Thanks, Gurney. Definitions are underlined in the clues. [[The pictures at the bottom have unidentified links to the puzzle. Please enclose any comments on them in double brackets. Thank you.]]

This looked daunting at first pass, but it proceeded quite well after that. There are some inter-related answers and clues. The over-riding link for these seems to be 2 wars, the Trojan War and the American Civil War. I wonder if there is something to it? Thanks to Neo. Definitions are underlined in the clues.
