Where did you get your second puzzle from?

I just can't believe it: the Rybka4 book has the solution as book moves, including different responses by black. 1. Qd6+ Ka8 2. Qc6 are 'book' moves...

First one took me forever, ugh.  Nice puzzles though.  The 2nd moves for all of them are fun.

1.Qf4+ Ka5 2.Qxf5+ exf 3.Nf5+ Kg5 4.Rg6#

1.Qd6+ Kh1 2.Qc6 Bxc6 (2...Qc8 3.Rd8 Rg8 4.Qxb7#) 3.Rd8+ Bc8 4.Rxc8#

1.Nxc7+ Bxc7 (1...Kb8 2.Nca6+ Ka8 3.Qxb7+ Kxb7 4.Be4#) 2.Qxb7+ Kxb7 3.Be4+ Kb8 4.Na6#
