Treasure Island is not uninhabited as it once was…

"All aboard! All aboard!" Guardian "Reeks of authenticity, cunning, intrigue, suspense and adventure. It's brilliant" Daily Mirror "Genuinely exciting" Daily Express "This follow-up to Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island reeks of authenticity, cunning, intrigue, suspense and adventure. It's brilliant" Daily Mirror "Like Stevenson, Motion has achieved that very difficult thing: a children's novel that works even better for adults. Look to your laurels, Rowling" The Times
