Author Description

People who have conquered one of the most iconic puzzles often find themselves in a never-ending cycle of constantly trying to solve it even faster. Within that group of people, there are those who are always trying to find new ways to solve the cube. Perhaps they have discovered the ZZ Method, the Petrus method, or some other method which results in a solved "first two layers" and an oriented cross of edge pieces on the last layer. The most efficient way to solve the cube from this state usually involves learning some new algorithms. The set of algorithms known as ZBLL (Zborowski-Bruchem Last Layer) is a gigantic compilation of 472 algorithms (or 493 algorithms if you have not learned full PLL yet) which completely solves every last layer case with a cross on top in just one look. This is essentially partial one-look-last-layer, or "1LLL" for short. While there are many free resources online to learn from, this book is for the types of people who would like a physical, tangible copy of this intimidating algorithm set in print form. There are no beginners' introduction pages or any sort of table of contents in this book; Just a title page, the main 472 algorithms of ZBLL, and a brief "Special Thanks" page at the end, cover-to-cover. Whether you would like to own a handy physical reference to take with you on the go without staring through a tiny phone screen, or if you just want to own a copy as a charming cubing prop, this book is certainly nice to have. Please note that while PLL is a subset of ZBLL, the 21 algorithms needed for PLL are not included in this book. If you have not already learned full PLL before beginning to learn ZBLL, it is recommended that you first find a decent online resource from any of the top fastest CFOP method speed-cubers for the algorithms which they use for PLL.
