Everyman 3,988
A nice crossword from Everyman. The surfaces are better than they used to be. There seemed to be quite a lot of link-words, something that for some reason doesn’t happen much with the very best setters. The grid below shows the answers where there were initial letters or self-reference. I wasn’t sure whether to highlight 12ac and 20ac, since they are a bit similar.
Definitions in crimson, underlined. Indicators (anagram, juxtaposition, homophone, reversal, etc.) in italics. Link-words in green. Anagrams indicated like this *(anagram) or this (anagram)*.

Everyman 3,984
A good crossword from Everyman, not quite so easy as last week’s I found, but not too bad. It looks to me as if he has given up on the alliterative clues (remarkably clever while they lasted, but one must run out of such things) — the grid has very little colour in it — and instead has disciplined himself to having whole-word anagrams; or at any rate a large proportion of them. It’s hard enough to fill a grid and set a crossword without all these extra restrictions (the ‘primarily’ clue, the self-reference, now this anagram thing, and no doubt more that I haven’t noticed) that he imposes on himself.
Definitions underlined, in crimson. Anagram indicators shown like this *(anagram) or (anagram)*, indicators (homophone, reversal, anagram, juxtaposition etc) in italics, link-words in green.
