Reseñas editoriales
"Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!" "X marks the spot!" Long John Silver with his parrot on his arm! Treasure Island, the 1883 masterpiece by the great Scot Robert Louis Stevenson, set the course for all-things-pirate to come. Its influence is inestimable.
This story of buccaneers seeking buried treasure on an island off the coast of Mexico is told through the eyes of Jim Hawkins, a teenager who gets mixed up in the pirate crowd. Hawkins is brought to life in this audiobook by the expert Neil Hunt, whose British tenor playfully rises and falls with the churn of the waves and the mayhem wrought by Billy Bones, Ben Gunn, and other immortal characters of this swashbuckling epic.

Neil Hunt does an outstanding job with the characters' voices in his reading of Treasure Island. Before purchasing this particular unabridged reading, I sampled perhaps a dozen of the options available at Audible. Most of them I was able to rule out because of poor audio quality. I only hesitated about Hunt's reading because the narrative sections in the sample he seemed to read a trifle faster than was necessary, as though in a great haste to tell the story. But having come to the end of the book, I was so delighted with his handling of the dialogue between the characters that I can see I made the right choice in buying this recording. The story is a classic, of course, and while nothing profound, it is a great deal of fun. I highly recommend this audio book.An outstanding reader

I really only grabbed this because my 9th grader was going to read it as part of his Honors English class (it was on the list.) Unfortunately, he found the 19th century Kings English a bit too daunting and didn't know what they were talking about half the time. He ended up reading something else. However, I thought it was fun and stuck with it. I of course have known of the book "forever," and I think I saw a movie base on it, way-back-when; but I never read the book.So now I have read (or listened to) the book and I am glad I did. They story still holds up and was fun. It was also fun comparing it to Treasure Planet. It actually perked my interest enough that I watched a few different movie versions that I could find.
A classic that is still a worthy story

The story takes place in the mid 1700s, on the west coast of England. Our protagonist is Jim Hawkins, the son of an inn keeper. An old sailor “the Captain” Billy Bones is a logger at the inn and pays Jim to keep an eye out for a one legged seafaring man. Billy has a stroke and dies, and then Jim’s father dies. Jim and his mother open Billy’s sea chest and discover money, a journal and a map. The district Squire Trelawney obtains a ship and hires the local physician Dr. Livesy as the ship’s doctor and Jim as cabin boy. He hires a crew including Long John Silver as the cook along with his talking parrot. They sail off to find the pirate Captain Flint’s Treasure Island.
The story was published as seventeen weekly installments in the “Young Folks Magazine” from 1 October 1881 to 28 January 1882. It was later published as a book. Stevenson wrote “The “Amateur Emigrant,” “The Pavilion on the Links,” and “A Vendetta in the West” while living in Monterey. Stevenson said his time in Monterey influenced his writing in many ways, the scenery; the people of many nations living together gave him many ideas for stories. Needless to say the book is well written and Neil Hunt did a good job narrating the book.
Pieces of eight!
