Random House Young Indy book series #1-8 Book Review: ESSENTIAL!

#indianajones #bookreview #booktube
I review the first 8 books in the Random House 15 book series of Young Indiana Jones adventures. Running from 1990-1995 this series predated The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles TV series...and has NONE of the drawbacks of that show's approach. These are incredibly well done mini adventures with a Young Indy that fee EXACTLY like the film trilogy. And it all fits in the Indy canon!
Sadly the series is long out of print and books 9-15 become extremely hard to find and go for very expensive prices on ebay.
But any Indy fan owes it to themselves to pick up as many as they can to devour. These eight books are some of the best Indiana Jones fiction I've read. Yes, they're children's books but BOY did the two alternating authors nail the tone of the films for a 13 year old Indy. These are as if the opening of Last Crusade never ended. The characterizations and tone are SPOT ON.
