Omschrijving

With a brand-new Three Investigators series finally launched into the world, it's a great time to also revisit the classic books. The new series, conceived and co-written by Elizabeth Arthur, Robert Arthur's daughter, brings Jupiter, Pete, and Bob into the 21st century. It offers fresh adventures that resonate with today's readers while preserving the timeless spirit of the original tales.But for old fans who fell in love with the series many years ago, this anniversary edition is also a must.

At the beginning of Robert Arthur's tenth and final novel in his classic mystery series, Jupiter Jones buys an old steamer trunk at an auction. The trunk originally belonged to a magician who has gone missing and contains a skull named Socrates, which is reputed to talk.

But the boys soon discover that others want the trunk, too - including Three-Finger Munger, Maximilian the Mystic, and a mysterious woman named Zelda. Does the trunk hold the clue to the Great Gulliver and the money that has gone missing? What does Socrates have to say about that?

By turns eerie, perplexing, and engrossing, The Mystery of the Talking Skull promises to please not only the existing fan base of The Three Investigators series but a whole new generation of readers who will find in its pages three very different boys whose imagination, courage, and intelligence can remind us that curiosity, perseverance, and rational inquiry are just as vital as friendship and cooperation.

After all, the motto of The Three Investigators is "We Investigate Anything," and their trademark is " " - three question marks, taken together. Celebrating the 60th anniversary of The Three Investigators series, this new edition of the Robert Arthur novels includes all ten titles, with end notes written by Elizabeth Arthur and Steven Bauer.

Continue the adventure with the contemporary Three Investigators series, crafted for a slightly older audience. The new series spans twenty-six books, from The Mystery of the Abecedarian Academy to The Mystery of the Zoroastrian Zodiac. Explore the full reboot at https: //www.amazon.com/dp/B0DTW2NT8F
