Scooby-Doo! and the Vicious Viking

Scooby-Doo! Mysteries #21

by James Gelsey, Duendes del Sur (Illustrator)

SCOOBY-DOO is an 'Ameri-canine' icon, the most beloved cartoon pooch of the past three generations. The snack-sniffing sleuth and his pals are in the midst of a huge popularity boom.

Scooby and the gang are ready for a fun afternoon in the new Viking Village at Happy Sally Land, a nearby amusement park. Scooby and Shaggy can't wait to ride the Nordic Nor'easter, the rip-roaringest roller coaster around. But when an angry Viking sabotages the ride and scares away all the visitors, it looks like no one will ever get ride the new roller coaster. It's up to the gang from Mystery, Inc. to track down the Viking before his villainy closes down Happy Sally Land -- forever.

Another cute Scooby mystery. Same predictable story line. The illustrations were exceptionally bad in this one but I still gave it 4 stars because I did enjoy the book. The illustrations just looked odd most of the time and frequently did not match what was said in the text. I really wish more work had been done on the illustrations but overall the book was still fun.

Scooby Doo and the gang visit a new amusement park. Unfortunately, an angry viking is trying to keep the visitors away. The gang loves a mystery, so they investigate to solve who is behind the vicious viking.

A fun and simple mystery. Good for young Scooby Doo fans.

Interesting but formulaic.

The Mystery, Inc. gang visits a theme park and can't wait to ride the newest and largest rollercoaster in the area. But it seems like someone is trying to sabotage the grand opening of the new ride, so it's up to the gang to figure out who it is.

This one was quite predictable, but it is a kid's mystery book after all. It was still a fun story though.

Part of a personal challenge to read all of my boyfriend's and his sister's childhood books before we donate and give them away.
