Astonishing, astounding (7)
I believe the answer is:
amazing
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'astonishing' is the first definition.
(synonyms)
'astounding' is the second definition.
('amaze' can be a synonym of 'astound')
(Other definitions for amazing that I've seen before include "Incredible" , "Sensational" , "Astounding, awe-inspiring" , "Causing great surprise" , "Astonishing, remarkable" .)
