For plain and pure imaginative delight, Treasure Island is unsurpassed. From the moment narrator Jim Hawkins meets the blind pirate Pew at the Admiral Benbow Inn until the spirited battle for hidden treasure on a tropic island, the novel spawns unforgettable scenes and characters that have thrilled readers young and old since its original publication in 1883. A story that centers around the battle between good and evil, Treasure Island is, in the words of G.K. Chesterton, "the realizaton of an ideal, that which is promised in its provocative and beckoning map; a vision not only of white skeletons but also green palm trees and sapphire seas."(P)1997 Blackstone Audiobooks Adventure Fiction Classics Pirate Action & Adventure Literature & Fiction

Critic reviews

"Climb aboard for the swashbuckling adventure of a lifetime. Treasure Island has enthralled (and caused slight sea-sickness) for decades. The names Long John Silver and Jim Hawkins are destined to remain pieces of folklore for as long as children want to read Robert Louis Stevenson's most famous book. With it's dastardly plot and motley crew of rogues and villains, it seems unlikely that children will ever say no to this timeless classic." (Amazon.com)

I think I’ve determined that Stevenson’s works are just not for me. I hate all this sailing and pirates stuff. That being said, the narrator was excellent! If you like seafaring pirate books check this out.

Performance was great; story sort of boring

Frederick Davidson's narration of this story is excellent! A bad narrator can ruin what you know is a good story. His different voices for the different characters really makes it great to listen to. R.L. Stevenson is one of my favorite authors. It's always amazed me how authors can put the words together in a way to bring their writing to life. I wish I had the gift they have. Troy J.

One of the best pirate stories ever.

This book recalled my boyhood fantasies of sailing the ocean with adventures in my heart. I listened to it in order to determine if it’s appropriate to read to my children. While I should probably wait another year or two I’m tempted to read it to them anyway so I can watch their imagination run and enjoy playing pirates in search of buried treasure with them. It’s a great story and a classic. Like many readers it took a chapter or two to get used to his different voices and accents but I was soon immersed in the story, paying no attention to my first misgivings of his accents. I would highly recommend this book to anyone.

Delightful
