Three of the best - By: S. Jones, 19 Sep 2001
I love alll 3 of these adventures, & always have. The Secret of the Unicorn is one of the very best of alll the Tintin books. It does seem a little strange to include it in this volume without its sequel, Red Rackham's treasure (I suspect this is to encourage you to buy Volume 4!) All 3 adventures are classic Tintin, with suberb illustrations, exotic locations & exciting storylines. The colouful Captain Haddock is a very welcome addition to the cast. This collection is a real joy.

I adored Tintin as a child & recently rediscovered the books in a new light. They never lose their appeal. If you enjoy Tintin you should check out 'The Greatest Adventures of Spike & Suzy'.
Excellent in both French and English! - By: , 02 Jul 1999
I read these books when I was a child, & loved them so much I cannot describe it here. They are not for everyone - some children find them confusing & don't get it completely, but the ones that do get it have tremendous affection for the books.

I still have a lot of love for the books as an adult, & now that my daughter is hooked on the adventures of Tinton & Milou (Tintin & Snowy), I often find myself engrossed in the copies we now have for her.

Also - The original French editions are great for teaching a child French, as long as you have the English version nearby to compare.

Excellent choice. . .

Reading any Tintin book is a joyous experience. It feels as if you are actuallly watching a movie, such is the power of the pictures with appropriate short & long shots, immaculate detail. Tintin books are not only humorous, but have wit, intelligence & superb buildup of the plot. Time flies before you are already on page 62 !
