"I loved this adventure tale. It was full of angry pirates acting recklessly and murderously, a couple of honorable men holding the heroes together and one daring lad throwing caution to the wind and saving the day. " — Jennifer (5 out of 5 stars)
"I loved this adventure tale. It was full of angry pirates acting recklessly and murderously, a couple of honorable men holding the heroes together and one daring lad throwing caution to the wind and saving the day. "
" One of my all time favorites. I've probably read it a dozen times... "
" This was an amazing book to read. If you are a fan of adventure, then this is not a book you want to pass up. "
" This abridged version reads very naturally. It's a perfect to a classic book for a new independent reader. "
" A pathfinder of its genre, lots of fun and not yet outshined. "
" This book, in my opinion, was just to hard to follow. Don't get me wrong, it is a classic. And maybe once I get older I can appreciate it the way it's meant to be. But it may be less of a entertainment book then anything. "
" Some people think Stevenson actually found a treasure himself "
" Getting a few classics out of the way. I can see why Nabokov was a fan; geography, secrets, inferred back story, etc. "
" This is a great read! I loved all of it, even though a lot of words I did not understand, and you may lay to that! Still a very wonderful read! "
" I loved this book! It brings back so many memories of my childhood; it was one of my favourites! "
" I'd actually give it 3.5 stars. "
" Shiver me timbers...it was good. It kept me interesed. It is certainly a product of its day, so of course the dialog is a bit tedious. As expected. "
