    Jim Hawkins, the narrator of "Treasure Island", is a young man, yet most of the audiobooks available are performed by stately, mature men! This audiobook of the classic novel brings its characters - impulsive narrator Jim, two-faced John Silver, and each filthy pirate - to life in an energetic presentation full of charm and fun. Set sail with the Hispaniola with your course set for adventure! 
    Robert Louis Stevenson's "Treasure Island" was the first to sail many seas: Long John Silver was the first one-legged buccaneer stumping about on a wooden leg, Captain Flint was the first pirate's parrot, and the map of Skeleton Island was the first to be marked with an X for "Dig Here" - but its swashbuckling adventure remains as fresh and exciting today as it did when it was first published; that's one of the rewards of being first.

    Winnie Flynn doesn’t believe in ghosts. (Though she wouldn’t mind a visit from her mom, explaining why she took her own life.) When her mysterious aunt Maggie recruits Winnie to spend a summer working as a production assistant on the reality TV hit Fantastic, Fearsome, Winnie suddenly finds herself in the one place her mother would never go: New Jersey. 
      
    The legend of the famous Jersey Devil makes perfect fodder for the show. But as the filming progresses, Winnie sees and hears things that make her think that the Devil might not be totally fake after all. Things about her mother’s death that might explain why she’s never met Aunt Maggie until now. Winnie soon discovers her family’s history is deeply entwined with the Devil’s. If she’s going to make it out of the Pine Barrens alive, she might have to start believing in what her aunt is telling her—and find out what she isn’t. 
      
    “Take your favorite reality show, throw in Joss Whedon, and then top it off with the kind of creepy, blood-chilling storytelling that only the Ostows can conceive and you've got one of the most terrifying reads of the year. The Devil and Winnie Flynn will haunt you long after you've finished it.”—Michael Buckley, New York Times bestselling author of Undertow
