4.0 out of 5 stars Great fun but just an average Three Investigators mystery, Jun 18 2006

This review is from: SECRET OF PHANTOM LAKE (Paperback)
This isn't one of the more exciting Three Investigators mysteries, but The Secret of Phantom Lake is still a great read for both young readers and adult 3I fans such as myself. There is not quite as much danger to the boys during the course of this investigation; they are accosted a few times and trapped in tight places once or twice, but the actions taken against them are clearly done just to slow them down rather than actually harm them. We hardly get a look inside the secret headquarters, my favorite childhood location, this time around because much of the action takes place around Phantom Lake just outside of Rocky Beach. This novel is your basic treasure hunt adventure; it all starts with an old sea chest, a false compartment in the chest, and mysterious journal entries from a dead man. If there is indeed a treasure, Jupiter knows he must work quickly because two suspicious and threatening men are also on the hunt for it. The supporting characters are not flushed out as well as I would have liked, and for this reason the surprise at the end failed to surprise me much at all. Still, I just love watching Jupiter's mind at work on solving a seemingly unsolvable mystery. This nineteenth book in the original series, written by prominent 3I author William Arden, does not contain the frenetic pace and throb of excitement that are to be found in the earlier novels of series creator Robert Arthur, but it's still a fun read sure to stimulate the mind in an attempt to figure everything out before Jupiter Jones does.

By Akshat Mathur (Bangalore,KA INDIA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: SECRET OF PHANTOM LAKE (Paperback)
This is Three investigators at there best ...Looking for a Java Jim (no refernce to the computer language as the book was written much before Java was invented).Those rainy sunday mornings & an island in morning mist...there is a certain thrill which is beyond words...all the three investigator lovers will find it as absorbing as it gets.Long live Pete,Jupe & bob!!
