5.0�toiles sur 5 Usual high quality in an outstanding series for kids, Oct. 31 2001

Par	Mr Perfect (Mammoth Falls, USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires

This review is from: The Mystery of the Whispering Mummy (Paperback)

My introduction to this series was my older brother's slightly worn Scholastic copy of Mystery of the Green Ghost. We both read it several times, and once we found out there were more, look out! We read them from the library, we cajoled Mom into taking us to the mall to buy them, we bought them at a local used bookstore. We were both hooked!
I can recommend every book in this series. My brother and I both read all the Hardy Boys (and liked them a lot), but these blow them out of the water! I think you can get 1-10 new (they've been reprinted), the rest you'll have to get used.
I've still got a complete set, but I'm rebuying them for a nephew. He's as excited about them as I was over 20 years ago. Excellent characters, spooky happenings, and just enough chills to keep a kid's pulse racing.
If you have kids, I can't recommend these highly enough.

This review is from: The Mystery of the Whispering Mummy (Paperback)

The Three Investigators do it again, solving their strangest mystery thus far. This case involves a 3000-year-old mummy that mysteriously whispers in some archaic tongue to one professor alone. The boys overcome a number of hurdles set in their way, some involving great personal danger to themselves, to solve this perplexing mystery and, at the same time, return an unusual Abyssinian cat to his loving owner. As the series continues, we learn more and more about the boys themselves and their secret headquarters, see them employing more gadgets in their work, and see the logical gymnastics Jupiter Jones continually performs to find resolutions to case after case. There is more deductive reasoning exhibited in this case than in the trio's previous two adventures, and that only serves to further draw the reader into the world of Rocky Beach, California. As I continue to re-read these classic stories from my youth, my appreciation for the writing of Robert Arthur grows more and more. I was indeed pleased to see that my suspicions in this case proved correct in the end; even had I been wrong, I would not have been embarrassed because Arthur's tight plot works on two levels--that of young readers, who can certainly follow the case with understanding and eager anticipation for each upcoming chapter, as well as that of adults. This is a great mystery story in all regards.

Par	Leaf (I just got back from METAL 2000 and I got no Idea where I am) - Voir tous mes commentaires

This review is from: The Mystery of the Whispering Mummy (Paperback)

They were my Heroes in my Childhood before Iron Maiden and Rock music enterd my Life and I became the Evil Person I am today. This is what I would buy my Kids If I ever should have some ( I'm trying to find a Girlfried-anybody out there! ) Their stories are creepy and suspenseful and Aunt Mathilda was the worst enemy they ever had. As I sad - you gotta love this.
