Reviews

"A breathless journey and the closest thing to a real pirate adventure without an eye patch and a time machine . . . a unique work of genius."  —Eoin Colfer, author, Artemis Fowl

"There are few novels which grip so thrillingly as those first read in childhood, and for me none which has quite matched the excitement of Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island."  —P.D. James
