Always will be a "Classic!" August 31, 2010
W. A. Walters Jr. (Memphis, TN)
A timeless classic I downloaded for my DROID phone. HTC Incredible. I am finally old enough to enjoy reading this because I am not being forced to do so, as I was when I was growing up. I highly recommend you treat yourself to this timeless classic, sit back and just plain enjoy a great piece of literature!
 A Great Classic Novel August 20, 2010
Dale Graham (Martin, GA United States)
I hadn't read Treasure Island in many years, but when I saw that it was available for my new Kindle I downloaded it. A good move for me, as I had forgotten how great it is. Although I was a teenager when I first read it, I think I enjoy it even more now that I am over 60. The story probably has less appeal to kids today since pirates are not a favorite subject for youth as it once was. But I would recommend it to anyone looking for an exciting story with many twist and turns.
A classic and a freebie! August 8, 2010
z hayes (TX)
I'm so delighted that so many of the literary classics which I've enjoyed in my childhood and youth are now available as freebies which I can download to my Kindle and read at my leisure. "Treasure Island" impressed me as a youngster with its high sense of adventure and it still does. Yes, the language used takes some getting used to, and it is certainly quite different from what most youngsters are reading these days in terms of the language style and form, but the themes in this literary classic are still relevant today and those who are not put off by the style will appreciate this work. It's disheartening to see many of these literary classics ignored in favor of generic stories which seem to captivate younger readers these days, but I hope making these works available as free downloads will entice more readers to give these classics a chance.
[insert pirate joke here] August 3, 2010

Wonderful. This book is a must read. This was the first classic I downloaded (for free nonetheless) for my Kindle and could not be more impressed with the quality of the novel. I expected a sort of lame adventure-Disney pirate hybrid but instead found myself looking forward to each and every turn of the page. The book is not terribly long (so you won't feel like the author fancies the killing of trees for sport) and keeps a rather good pace of narrating the action. Treasure Island is a must read. (A) It's free, (B) You'll knock out reading a classic, and (C) You'll feel all that much more enlightened when you throw up in front of it's namesake hotel in Vegas. Yarr.

Great read. The writing style may be considered a bit dull by today's standards, but I really liked reading this. This is the original pirate adventure book. Yo ho ho!
