Silver

Return to Treasure Island

De: Andrew Motion

Narrado por: David Tennant

In the 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 on the river with a request for Jim from her father - Long John Silver. Aged and weak, but still possessing a strange power, the pirate proposes Jim and Natty sail to Treasure Island in search of Captain Flint's hidden bounty. But the thrill of the ocean odyssey gives way to terror as the Nightingale reaches its destination, for it seems Treasure Island is not as uninhabited as it once was....

Silver is a worthy sequel to Treasure Island and a work of extraordinary authenticity and imaginative power from one of England's greatest writers.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"...rich and thrilling narrative which so ingeniously complements [Treasure Island]." ( The Independent)

"Motion writes beautifully...a darker world than Stevenson's with real evil and genuine loss in it - and a tentative but credible burgeoning love story. Considered as a sequel, Silver more than holds its own as an adventure story." ( Irish Independent)

"...a splendid adventure story in its own right." ( The Guardian)

What's with the ending??

The ending was very abrupt and left the feeling that there was supposed to be more to it.

What a story and dramatic reading!

Excellent reading of an excellent book! I highly recommend. it says I need more words. Word Word Word

it was a good story

great story, poor ending

this was a great story with fantastic narration. left a little sour by an abrupt and wholly unsatisfying ending..

WOW!!!

David Tennant is an amazing narrator! I could listen to him all day!!! The story was a great sequel to Treasure Island with suspense, humor, and a bit of romance. All in all, a very enjoyable listen!
