Disappointing compared to other Twain titles I've read.

Twain stavolta trasforma una nuova avventura di Tom Sawyer e Huck (ormai inseparabili) in una vera e propria indagine poliziesca. Si legge in poche ore. Gli avvenimenti di questa storia, processo incluso, sono realmente accaduti e sembra una puntata di CSI (con cadavere compreso e scagionamento di quello che era erroneamente creduto il vero assassino).

I thought Tom Sawyer Abroad was not great; this is worse.

At least it's short. I probably would have thought this was OK if it didn't purport to be in Huck Finn's voice. As an ordinary short story, without Huck and Tom, it would be at least mildly diverting. But as a mash-up, it didn't work for me at all. But like I said, it's short.

Нормальный детектив для детей! По крайней мере, моему младшему брату очень понравилось. До такой степени понравилось, что он не отставал от меня, пока я не дочитал книгу до конца (крайне редкий случай!!!!). Это всё было когда я (вернее, мы) читал книгу в первый раз. Сейчас же я её перечитал в оригинале и особо не разочаровался. Тут, как минимум (в отличие от третьей части) есть достаточно увлекательный сюжет, есть тайна, даже есть некоторые хитросплетения сюжета!!! Правда, Том Сойер изображён неким суперменом (не люблю суперменов), а в остальном всё в порядке, хотя [a:Mark Twain|1244|Mark Twain|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1322103868p2/1244.jpg] может и лучше!!!

Not as bad as Tom Sawyer Abroad, but no where near as great as the 1st two. It felt rushed and not thought out well. I did enjoy Tom's discovery of the murderers at the end though.
