3.0 out of 5 stars Very simple plot, nothing more than we are used to, January 27, 2004
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Firebird Rocket (The Hardy Boys, No. 57) (Hardcover)
The Firebird Rocket is not very exciting. There are no overly exciting action sequences, no twisters, just one main thing--the Hardys are directed to Australia where they DO NOT go to very extensive means to search for Doctor Jenson.

Also, it just happens that Mike Moran, another person they are looking for, pops out of the dark just when Doctor Jenson does! This is very rare and not likely to happen, for we are given no hints that the two are connected.

But everything else, including the trapping of the criminals, the surprise of Professor Young being on the enemy's side, and the ruthless attempts on the brothers' lives, is okay. (I don't mean I want the Hardys to die, however, as the previous sentence may try to reveal.)

So go ahead and read this book, but don't expect too much.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Kid Material, September 29, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: The Firebird Rocket (The Hardy Boys, No. 57) (Hardcover)
This was my first Hardy Boys book, and it is very good, though not for older readers. It's a great story for anyone 7-11.
