I'm merely writing to offer congrats to the author(s) for such a terrific and comprehensive article on these books which I was so fond of as a child. I had no idea about the German series.--BAW 20:57, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Three Investigators book list

In the book list The Mystery Of The Cranky Collector is listed as number 43, whereas the copy I have is listed as number 42 (Printed in Great Britain). In fact it has a numbered list of all 42 books and doesn't include The Mystery Of Wrecker's Rock (1986, by William Arden).219.89.104.204 09:05, 13 July 2006 (UTC)JAR

[edit] bad links

nearly all of the book title wiki-links are bad. The majority are dead links and out of the few that do link, most lead to non-Three-Investigators material, such as "Hot Wheels". Suggestion: make the bad and dead linked titles into simple italicized entries.

[edit] Audio books

There are indeed two known audio books, but they're fairly rare. Random House published the two first books as full-cast audio books back in 1984, dramatized by Edward Kelsey: The Mystery of the Stuttering Parrot and Secret of Terror Castle. This should be added somewhere in the article too, IMO. -andy 84.149.76.63 12:48, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
