Have to read another one in the future to see if my impression changes but, right now,I can say I liked it. I know it is geared towards teens and up but found it a littl on the basic end of things as far as plot goes. It was predictable and I like a book I can really get into. One that makes me think.
I read the Hardy Boys books (and Nancy Drew) when I was a child. The stories are old fashioned, but that's why I like them so much.

So, one of my favorite bands parodies this book cover for one of their album covers, which just makes me happy.

Hardy Boys 17: The Secret Warning (Hardy Boys) by Franklin W. Dixon (1938)
My book has the same cover as shown in this listing but was published in 1994.
Another great Hardy boys mystery.
First and last Hardy Boys I ever read.

generic HB plot.

This book thought me an important lesson. I learned that it's a realy bad idea to try and cheat the govenment. It only ends up badly for you if you get caught.
The latest Hardy Boy adventure. Just started reading it to my sons - it involves a pirate ghost, which they love.
I think the Hardy Boy books helped me with learning deductive and inductive skills. I had to work through logic. Who knew? I enjoyed all these books.
Didn't even THINK about finishing reading it. It's HARDY BOYS. I mean come ON.
Insurance fraud. I never realized how these books ran the gamut of topics.
Pretty fun story, interesting plot, but of course the are to perfect.
Another good Hardy Boys mystery!
