Publisher's summary
Millions of people have thrilled to the adventure of young Jim Hawkins and Long John Silver since the publication of Treasure Island in 1883. It has been dramatized countless times since its appearance. Treasure maps marked with an X, schooners, the Black Spot, tropical islands, and peglegged sailors with parrots on their shoulders: All these stereotypes of the buccaneer tale were the invention of R. L. Stevenson. But make no mistake about it...this novel is a masterpiece of plot development, character study, and sheer writing skill.
In this magnificent production, award winning narrator Charlton Griffin brings these unforgettable characters to life with a zest and clarity never before realized. Thrill to this timeless coming-of-age adventure story as you slip effortlessly into the atmosphere of 18th century England.

Story
This, the first in the splendid series of Jack Aubrey novels, establishes the friendship between Captain Aubrey, Royal Navy, and Stephen Maturin, ship's surgeon and intelligence agent, against the thrilling backdrop of the Napoleonic wars. Details of life aboard a man-of-war in Nelson's navy are faultlessly rendered: the conversational idiom of the officers in the ward room and the men on the lower deck, the food, the floggings, the mysteries of the wind and the rigging, and the road of broadsides as the great ships close in battle.

Jack London worshiped strong and virtuous heroes, and his stories give great weight to the inevitable triumph of good over evil. His telling of the adventures of Humphrey van Weydon in The Sea Wolf is in keeping with this theme of moral man. His powerful and gripping saga of van Weydon's capture by a seal-hunting ship and the ensuing tangles with its dreaded captain, Wolf Larsen, makes this a classic American tale of peril and victory.

Herodotus was a Greek historian born in Halicarnassus, subject at the time of the great Persian Empire. He lived in the fifth century BC (c. 484 - c. 425 BC), a contemporary of Socrates. He is often referred to as "The Father of History", a title originally conferred by Cicero. Herodotus was the first historian known to have broken from Homeric tradition in order to treat historical subjects as a method of investigation, specifically by collecting his materials in a critical, systematic fashion and then arranging them into a chronological narrative.

Excellent
Slightly (very slightly) different than the novel I'm using to follow along with the narration but certainly still unabridged. I love the narration, music (just a little between sections), and editing. The classic pirate story well handled on audio. I can tell Charlton Griffin loves it, too.

Sailing and Pirates and buried treasure
What more could one ask of a classic adventure story, then sailing Pirates and buried treasure? Heroes, men of honor, and dastardly villains fill out a compelling yarn. The narrator draws the listener into the adventure, and makes the characters believable and right there sitting next to the listener.

Avoid a black spot!
This is at least my third read of Treasure Island and I’ve never enjoyed it so much. Probably because of the wonderful narration of Carlton Griffon, one of my favorite readers. This is an absolute classic book and it isn’t even necessary to offer a composite of the plot as it is so well known. If you haven’t read it, you’re missing a real treat. And perhaps you deserve a black spot.

Wonderfully narrated
This is the second audiobook of Treasure Island that I’ve listened to in the past month. My negative comments of the first was the performance; the narrator was almost incomprehensible. Not so with this one, the narrator is excellent.
Only criticism of this version of Treasure Island is that there is to much dead air between chapters. I liked the music at the beginning and end of each chapter, but the wait for the next chapter is annoying.
