Amazon.comClimb aboard for the swashbuckling adventure of a lifetime.
Treasure Islandhas enthralled (and caused slight seasickness) 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.
--Naomi Gesinger --This text refers to the Hardcover edition. From School Library JournalGr 7 Up-The archetypal sea-faring adventure story is given another rousing and dramatic rendition in this quickly paced abridged entry in Hodder''s top-flight Classic Collection series. The critical plot and subplot threads have been beautifully retained, and all the classic lines like "shiver me timbers" have been included. Stalwart English actor Richard Griffiths handles the bulk of the narrative chores flawlessly and is particularly effective in his pacing. He is capably assisted by Gareth Armstrong who, inexplicably, is uncredited on the cassette case. The subtle use of occasional sound effects such as gulls, lapping waves, and cannon and gunshot enhances this superb version of Stevenson''s masterpiece. All collections should make room for this fine work.

--This text refers to the Audio Cassette edition. From AudioFileThe famous movie portrayals of Long John Silver have led us to expect a particular cadence to the pirate''s voice. But shiver me timbers, reader David Case surprises us with a different, but no less effective, variation on the devious and murderous rascal. His Silver and other characterizations are crisply presented in well-paced British intonations. The package offers no sound effects or other elaborations, but the story flies along regardless; this is a very good version of the children''s favorite. D.W. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
