Rip snortter
From Gregory Savage of Dongguan, Australia on .
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 you really know the story. You only know one cut down version of the real thing.

Great book
XLNT narration by BJ

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
From Ammon of Columbus, Unknown on .
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!
The Master of Ballantrae
From Cheryl Stevenson of Ocean Shores, Washington on .
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.
