'Seaward ho! Hang the treasure! It's the glory of the sea that has turned my head.'

Following the demise of bloodthirsty buccaneer Captain Flint, young Jim Hawkins finds himself with the key to a fortune. For he has discovered a map that will lead him to the fabled Treasure Island. But a host of villains, wild beasts and deadly savages stand between him and the stash of gold. Not to mention the most infamous pirate ever to sail the high seas . . .

Why Novel North recommends

‘Sinister, exciting and above all adventurous, Treasure Island is swashbuckling tale of complex characters and questionable motives. It’s perfect if you are drawn to stories ‘x marks the spot’ and setting out on quests of discovery.’
