Re: The Three Investigators
Not yet. But I will be reading all the books.
So far I have read only 17 or 18 books.

Re: The Three Investigators
There are totally two series.
The first one is the most famous one and totally has 43 ooks.
The second series is called "Three investigators - Crimebusters" and has just 10 or 13 books. I am not sure about the exact count.

Hi everyone,
A good friend of mine is doing a college course that requires he produce a questionnaire to collect data, then write a report on the data he's collected.
He decided to base his survey on the Three Investigators, so even if you've only read one book in the series, please quickly fill out this anonymous form (it takes just 30 seconds):

Thanks!
Ian.

Re: The Three Investigators
A bit tricky, for I'm not that familar with the English names, and I wonder why there are only 60 books... In Germany there are more than 160 dramatised audiobooks - next year the the speakers are on tour again with a new play - and I think more than 130 books...

For all who enjoy the German audio books and are able to watch German TV, the station RTL will show the latest stage performance "Phonophobia - Sinfonie der Angst" Sunday morning at midnight.

Re: The Three Investigators
Out of the blue, I got a boxed set of 3 Three Investigators books as a kid, and loved them. Never read any others though for some reason, or come across them since. There was one in some sort of Hacienda that I liked, but the best was one involving a stolen item (a diamond maybe) hidden in a swimming pool.

Re: The Three Investigators
The latter sounds like "The mystery of the invisible dog", the other one could be "The mystery of the headless horse". It's been some time since I read the books or listened to the German audiobooks, too many other things to do . But once I have the time (maybe when I'm retired) I hopefully will reread them, maybe even in English.
