What a pleasure to read this book after so many years. Yes, It was the old school days about 35 Years ago.

The intrigue is still there and will have you turning the pages till the end.

Happy Reading!

This book is okay. Felt it started to drag halfway through but picked back up towards the end

This book is a rollicking tale of pirates, hidden treasure, and Jack Hawkins' adventures at sea, told with great passion by one of Scotland's finest writers - Robert Louis Stevenson.

The writing is colourful; beautifully crafted; full of colourful descriptions and lively seafaring language. A great yarn suitable for children and adults alike.

This a very good book.

Would recommend this book to anyone who likes adventure and/or pirates

This book was the best I have ever read

Still stands the test of time as one of the classic adventure stories.

This book will keep you enthralled from beginning to end.It is packed with adventure and chilling suspense.It is just a thrilling read.

Treasure Island is page turner for all those looking to write a great thriller. The plot and sub-plot is delivered with equal measure. Character are colourful with just enough to keep them interesting. The ending is left on a cliff hanger of a question, room for another tale of the high seas.

A classic that deserves to be re-read often.

I never read this as a child, however I have now read it three times to my young children and they love it as much as me. It's exciting, at times scary, and a great story of Pirates and Treasure. Give it a try!

This book is a classic Boys Own adventure and plenty of morale learning for today's readers. I liked using the dictionary to learn some of the old seafaring words.

great book but can get on your nerves because of complex language

A very familiar tale but one I hadn't yet read as the author intended. Exciting for not only the story but also the number of pirate references that colour our view of the fable of pirates today. Long John silver is a character whose duplicitous nature keeps us guessing whose side is he really on? Excellent.

I remember this story being read to me by my mother on holiday by the sea. It was probably an abridged children's version but has always been in my memory.

This is the real deal; the language is slightly quirky but of its time. The art of storytelling by a master is plain to see; the Admiral Benbow is wonderfully evoked as a sleepy country ale house until the appearance of Flint and the tension gradually ratchets up with the "sea wolves" beginning to circle. Long John Silver emerges as a Machiavellian character willing to change sides to survive and uses all his cunning to survive.

Disappointingly, the story fizzles out when they successfully return to Bristol. What happened to Jim ; surely he didn't return to run the pub with his mother! He is no country bumpkin and is the ringmaster for the whole show.

Such a fantastic adventure story, can't believe it's taken me til now to read such a classic & enjoyable tale!

it is alright but it is quite hard to understand.But overall its a good story,and that my friend IS WHAT COUNTS!

The book is good with a bit of alright stuff in it

Excellent

Would recommend to anyone looking for a book to get into took me awhile get past the old English but I got there in the end :)

Great book it kept me guessing and was a real page turner! Shiver me timbers!!!

Yeah the books ok. Not exactly the best I've ever read but I suppose I'm actually lucky to be able to read and actually have a book to read because in places in the slums the kids don't have books to read.

'twas rubbish it's hard to understand needs to be modernise it it bad okay

I never read this as a child and am thrilled to have found such a great book. It is deservedly a classic.

My 7 year old daughter and I have just finished reading a chapter a night, and have loved every minute. We liked the way it was haunting and atmospheric. The characters were well written. We have been thrilled by all of Jim's adventures. We wish there was a second one to follow!

If you are going to read a classic read this. You will not be disappointed.

It was like bing transported into a different era! Enjoyed the read

Best book ever

It's a book that you must read I couldn't put it down, a absolutely thrilling reaf

Fantastic book I read it for the first time when I was 10 and I absolutely loved it

Read this for the first time as an adult. Kept me entertained enough, but clearly would have enjoyed it more as a nipper. Nice to get to the source of so much the pirate that exists in everybody's imagination "Jim lad!".

Pirates, intrigue, adventure, plot twists and treasure - what's not to like?

Excellent book my opinion
