I listened to this and it took me a bit to get into the story but once going, it flew by. A fantastic ending for a story of two brothers who take sibling rivalry just a tad too far. Excellent narration. I knew who all the characters were by the sound of their voices. I had just listened to Treasure Island so I was up for another Stevenson. I thought that I knew his stories without actually ever reading any. The power of the movie has a lot to answer for. Don't let a good movie fool you into believing . . .

After listening to this, I am tempted to tourism Scotland. As usual, it is narrated excellently by BJ and the author is no slouch either.
A wonderful story of sibling rivalry

I got this as part of the 2010 Classic Novels Premium Podcast, and didn't listen to it for quite some time. What a mistake! It is an incredible tale of nobles, piracy, treasure hunting, family disputes and politics. I highly recommend this book. And B.J. ads such life to the characters. Very enjoyable reading!

Again and again I am thrilled to "hear" classics I never found the time to read and this story is excellent - as always the narration is superb and the character voices so distinct I can imagine right along with the audio.
