5.0 out of 5 stars A Harrowing Adventure, 21 Jan 2003
By Daniel Jolley "darkgenius" (Shelby, North Carolina USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 10 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Mystery of the Green Ghost (Three Investigators) (Paperback)
While I did not find this story quite as satisfying as the previous three books in the Three Investigators series, it featured some of the most compelling scenes thus far. The chapters describing the boys' dangerous flight through a maze of old mines and caves had me squirming in my seat. Being a claustrophobic-type person, I found Arthur's descriptions of the tight squeezes through spaces barely large enough for a youngster to be quite harrowing and intense. That part of the story really "made" this book for me. While the mystery of the green ghost is fascinating and interesting, I just did not find the conclusion to be 100% believable, although it is certainly adequate and in step with the details of the case. The plot itself basically has two story lines converging into one; while there was some danger of the two story lines not intersecting properly at times, Arthur managed to overcome these potential pitfalls and keep the plot on an even keel. It may be that a youngster reading this book (or having it read to him/her) might get a little confused as the story begins wrapping up, but I don't think such confusion would detract from his/her enjoyment of the book. As I said, the description of the mines was just intense and should produce some pretty wide-opened eyes in youngsters (and adults) following the action. Any parent reading this book to a child should certainly anticipate some "just one more chapter" and "can you leave the light on?" remarks around bedtime.

5.0 out of 5 stars First Book I ever read, 16 Feb 2004
By Seán Dowling (Blackrock, Cork Ireland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mystery of the Green Ghost (3 Investigators Alfred Hitchcock Books) (Paperback)
This was the first proper book I ever read - at the age of 7 - over 25 years ago. As a young boy, the three investigators had everything to spark your imagination - set in faraway America, the car scrapyard away from adult eyes, constant adventure.
My greatest recommendation is that I am buying it for my own kids to read ( not their first book, but not far off).
