Then the last three are from a different publisher and lack the music; the narrator for book eight does a lot of really oddball voices--Hannah Gruen with a Southern accent! A third narrator handles the last two books, and she's OK.

It was hard to stop myself from digging out the old hardcovers to continue reading, but I managed--at least so far!
OK, I bit! The Nancy Drew audiobooks were checked out of my libraries, but I put a hold on The Secret in the Old Clock. However, I'm tempted to start with The Hidden Staircase. I could be way off base, but my memory says that Clock fared worse in updating than Staircase.
