Being the real untold story of Long John's true adventures concerning Treasure Island and the cunning young pirate Jim Hawkins. (Loosely based on the wildly inaccurate version by Robert Lewis Stevenson.)

What if the most famous pirate in literature wasn't the villain after all?

Long John Silver has traded his cutlass for a cooking knife. Once feared across the seven seas, he's now just trying to keep his head down and his stew hot at the Spy-glass Tavern. A quiet life suits him fine-until a mischievous young rascal named Jim Hawkins shows up with a map and a dream of buried treasure.

But there's something off about this boy. Too clever by half, too quick with his stories, and far too eager to lead grown men into danger. Before Silver can say pieces of eight, he's swept back into a world of scheming sailors, rum-soaked mutinies, and a treasure hunt that smells more like a setup than salvation.

As the Hispaniola sets sail, Silver finds himself caught between loyalty and survival, friendship and folly, and a secret that could sink them all. Because this time, the real puppet master isn't the pirates-it's the boy.

Told with wit, heart, and a hearty dose of sea salt, Silver: Treasure Island Revisited turns Robert Louis Stevenson's classic on its head, giving voice to the man behind the legend. Fans of Wide Sargasso Sea and Boy Swallows Universe will love this clever, swashbuckling reinvention of a tale you thought you knew.

Set sail once more for Treasure Island-only this time, the story belongs to Silver.
