The Hardy Boys Books : Gold Medal Murder (Nancy Drew/Hardy Boys Super Mysteries) [Paperback] Reviews
8 of 8 people found the following review helpful Courtesy of Lost for Words, By Cor Lost For Words (Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews This review is from: Gold Medal Murder (Hardy Boys: Undercover Brothers: Super Mystery) (Paperback) Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys tackle crime in an all new crossover. Their mission? To catch those responsible for sending death threats to a pair of Olympic athletes, before things escalate to murder.I admit it, I absolutely loved reading the Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys books when I was younger. I still enjoy reading them now. They are a classic, fresh read, full of mystery, and mayhem. I especially love the crossover books as I love the chemistry between the characters, and I love trying to figure out "whodunit". This book stays true to form, and we are immediately immersed in the story. The action is fast-paced, and it takes us for a roller-coaster ride, along with all of our favourite characters. Both Bess and George are in this installment, and they also help the three sleuths figure out what is going on, and who is involved. All in all, an excellent read that reminds me of why I love both of these series, and especially the super mysteries. It doesn't disappoint,...

To clarify, the "d" word is in here at least 4 times. (Joe pg 147 - used like "uh-oh"-, 151 - used like "Wow!"; 154 - used like "Yup, look how great I am"; Nancy pg 163 - used like "uh-oh" or "Oh, no!") The Nancy Drew I grew up with would have gasped in horror to hear her modern day counterpart swear. Those who roll their eyes at those of us who are concerned by this need to keep in mind that we're still fans of Nancy and the Hardy Boys, but we mourn some of the disregard the current ghost writer(s)?? and publisher have shown for the strong, almost blindingly morally shiny characters built over the past 80ish years. (Incidentally, I balk at the Hardy boys' use of "Aunt Trudy"... 50+ years of Aunt Gertrude destroyed flippantly...so sad)The story itself is typical Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys getting into trouble and saving the day. If you've read enough of them, you can probably predict the ending. It's a decent plot: Scott...
