The thrilling follow-up to Treasure Island, as told by one of England's greatest contemporary writers.

July, 1802. In the marshy eastern reaches of the Thames lies the Hispaniola, an inn kept by Jim Hawkins and his son. Late one night, a mysterious girl named Natty arrives with a request from her father, Long John Silver. Aged and weak, but still possessing a strange power, the pirate proposes that Young Jim and Natty sail to Treasure Island in search of Captain Flint's hidden bounty, left behind many years before…

Featuring a cast of noble seamen, murderous pirates, and stories of love, valour and terrible cruelty, Silver is a worthy sequel to Treasure Island- one of the greatest adventure stories ever told - and a work of extraordinary authenticity and imaginative power©2012 Andrew Motion (P)2012 W F Howes Ltd Historische Romane

This sequel to Treasure Island is perhaps most successful in its style and its masterful descriptions, both of which do credit to R.L. Stevenson's original work. With David Tennant's subtle reading of it, you can let the story unfold in front of the inner eye.
With that being said, the plot has its weak points and is, if highly realistic, often oddly dissatisfying. I have the feeling this is because the author wanted to explore too many themes at once: Human greed, the thirst for adventure, father-daughter / son relationships, the concept of history repeating itself, unlucky portends of events to come: In all these themes and more mixed together, the reader can sometimes lose their focus.
With that being said, this book is still a great piece and absolutely worth the listening adventure.

Good attempt at a sequel

Horrible, just horrible. This has nothing in common with a good sea story, nothing at all. The characters and the plot are just unbelievably bland and at times completely stupid.

A torture to listen to
