Treasure Island

Robert Louis Stevenson

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.

The Wonderful Tune - A weird...

Jessie Douglas Kerruish

Jessie Douglas Kerruish was born in Seaton Carew, Hartlepool, County Durham in 1884. 
 
Little is known about the author’s life and to a large extent her work remains either neglected or out of favour. 
 
Her literary career got off to a very bright start in 1917 when she won the Hodder & Stoughton First Novel Prize for ‘Miss Haroun Al-Raschid’.  Five years later came her seminal work ‘The Undying Monster’, which today is still regarded as a macabre werewolf classic. 
 
Throughout her career she contributed short stories to such popular periodicals as Novel, Lady's and Weekly Tale-Teller.  One of the best was ‘The Wonderful Tune’ and whilst the title sounds light and airy her dark imagination riddles the narrative.  Many of her works were set in exotic locations from North Africa to the Middle East. 
 
Her output was small, limited to two collections of short stories and several novels. 
 
During the 1930’s severe and debilitating migraines prevented her from working for any length of time and all she could muster was contributions to anthologies. 
 
Jessie Douglas Kerruish died in Hove, Sussex in 1949, in obscurity.
