Intrépida narración llena de dinamismo y aventuras.
Un clásico sin lugar a duda.
Stevenson logra que conectemos con el protagonista, haciendo que descubramos todos los tejemanejes a la vez que los va descubriendo el protagonista.

I read this book directly after reading Robinson Crusoe and have to say, it blows that one out of the water. I'd never read it before, having only seen Treasure Planet and Treasure Island as films; it's been on my list to read, however, and I'm glad that I did.
The format, the narration, descriptions and characters, plot and progression were all fantastic. There's no wasted space here, and the boy narrator is a fairly competent fellow in his own right. The release of the story as a serial makes sense in that each chapter provides its own rise and fall of narrative, gripping the reader and pushing them to the next one.
I read the whole book in two days, which to me is one of the signs of a good book. It is a straightforward adventure, no frills or excuses, and does a great job of it. I'd consider it and the emotions it elicits to be worthy of emulation, and will take the time to study it for inspiration and reference in my own writings.
Recommend to everyone interested in a good, straightforward adventure story.

It was a bit of a trudge through this at times. I expected more treasure hunting and more excitement. I like Stevensons work though and the idea of this is decent, just in reality it was a bit dull, particularly in the middle.
