Book info

  • Title Five Go to Mystery Moor
  • Author Enid Blyton
  • Year 1954
  • Genre Childrens

In book thirteen, the Famous Five find out about something dangerous out in Mystery Moor. They'll have to risk the treacherous mists and follow the trail if they want to find what's lurking in the shadows. Do they know what they've let themselves in for?

Thoughts

Although this has all the tropes you associate with the Famous Five at this point, it does stand out as a good read. The gang do end up on a mysterious moor, they do face off some travellers who are committing crimes, they do meet another kid who initially winds them up the wrong way but ends up being a friend, and together they all manage to bring the perpetrators to justice. Not fresh but fun anyway.

Rating: 3 / 5
