Robert Louis Stevenson's Kidnapped: A Radio Dramatization Audiobook

" it was interesting to get an idea what it could have been like in 1800....but the story itself dragged on a bit and even though I expected for something to happen, nothing really ever happened.... "

" Enjoyable classic adventure novel. I'm very glad I finally got around to reading it! "

" You just have to love RLS. He is the master of classic action-adventure. The kind of book that stuffy critics love to refer to as "boys'" novels. Well, I happen to love boys and their novels. :) "

" read with Nathan when he is older "

" Listen to this on Audio by a reader that uses the Scottish accent. It's great! "

" Wonderful book!! I counldnt put it down! When i finished it, it was heart breaking :)) "

" A good story, but a little difficult to read in parts because of the Scottish "brogue" and references to historical things of the times. "

" I liked it, but it was not a book which captured my interest for a while. I only read it for school, and because it is my dad's favorite book. Still, it was well written, and definetly a classic. "

" Stevenson was called "Tusitala" -- Story Writer -- in his last home on a Samoan island, and that he was. Was it his sickly childhood that made him such a fine adventure-story writer? Although Treasure Island is my favorite, I also enjoyed Kidnapped. "

" Beautiful 1949 hardcover edition from my grandfather. Not as good as Treasure Island; a little more perseverance required to get through the middle section. "

" Great book. A real story of manly friendship. I would reccommend this book to any of my literature-loving male friends, especially if they are scottish. Note for dad: There is a bagpipe competition in the second half. "

" I could not get into this book at all. In total, I think it ended up taking me over a month to plow through it. That month of my life I will never get back. "

" I tried, but it just didn't radiate enough interest for me. "

" I liked it but was kinda borring!!!! Good tho!!! "

" Read it when i was around 11. Deep and sensitive but also rebellious. "

" There is just something so romantic about the Scots. "

" a very simple story of early childhood adventure "

" I read this every few years I love it. "

" LOVED it! It was more than I hoped for. Colorful characters, great language, great insight into mid-18th-century Scotland. :) I learned a lot about the people, language and topography. RLS rocks. "

" I was a little disappointed, I had expected something more. I'm not really sure why, but I found it a bit flat - maybe episodic rather than suspenseful I think. "

" Excellent plot, keeps you interested till the very end. The characters are crafted with elegance. "

" Most of the characters in this book speak in "Scottish" which makes it hard to understand at times. The thrilling plot contains kidnapping, swordfighting, ship wrecks, grand adventures, and a really dull ending. "
