Wow, what a tale! A great story and performance. R.L. Stevenson wrote beautifully. I'll be speaking like a pirate all week now.

excellent version of a classic tale

I'm in my early 30s and Ive never read treasure island before, when I started this novel. it was hard to focus on because this is an audio drama and not a retelling of the book proper. but I have to say after listening for a few chapters I was hooked. and I'm so glad this is the version of treasure island that I got to enjoy first.. great cast. great story (especially that it's over 120 years old). 10/10

Very good

This was really entertaining. I was surprised at how dark it is in some places. I think it added to the realism of the pirate adventure - people die, the dangers are real. The story ends on an unexpectedly poignant note that I appreciated. Very glad I read this, and that I read this version. The voice actors are all fantastic.

Theatrical

What a wonderful, theatrical retelling of an old classic. The cast really brought the story to life.

An old book made new

Skips the old language by putting it in play form. Easily accessible and a great form of the original story.
