Ich werde die restlichen Crimebusters einfach mit sehr viel Humor lesen. Das Hörspiel zu nieder to gibt fand ich immer ziemlich gut und reichlich bizarr (und das obwohl mich als Tierrechtlerin die detaillierten Beschreibungen der Toten Hühner nicht so ganz kalt lassen). Das Originalbuch ist allerdings noch seltsamer, ekliger (allein die Beschreibung wie Justus der Gravy das Bein runterläuft und das Huhn seine Hose ganz dreckig macht) aber auch lustiger. Der Fall kam mir in Hörspiel irgendwie besser vor aber vielleicht liegt das auch nur daran, dass er etwas ernsthafter dargestellt wird. Allen Peter mit seinen ganzen Karate Tritten die natürlich den Bösewicht mit Waffe fertig machen...

"Watch your language, Jupe," Bob said. "Pete s at an impressionable age."

"Hi there, Buddy, hi there, friend. It's great to have you back again. What's your order? What's your scoop? We've got it from the hens teeth to soup. What would you like?"

"I'll have a six-piece murder to go. " Peter said absently.

Die Namen Junior Jones, Pete cranberry und Bob andersonville Fand ich auch sehr nett.

Apparently this is the third time I'm reading this Three Investigators case in the German edition (I've also read it in English once), and it's still as bizarre as ever. This time the high point for me was Bob flirting with a girl at a party, and him asking her if they didn't know each other, and her replying "Sure, I'm your mother!" and then he goes "Oh, great mommy," etc etc. Did I mention this is a bizarre book? The whole premise is, but the writing of the boys in the Crimebuster era was really whack too. It's kind of entertaining but I can't give it more than two stars, my conscience won't allow it.

Entertaining aber zu oft einfach hart unangenehm wie die reden (jedes mal wenn Peter Kelly "kleines" genannt hat musste ich fast kotzen)
