Flint's Island

the long version

**A sequel to the most popular pirate tale ever told—Robert Louis Stevenson’s *Treasure Island*.** Inspired by the opening line of the famous novel in which Jim Hawkins tells of a "treasure not yet lifted" still hidden on an unknown island, Leonard Wibberley (author of *The Mouse That Roared*) penned this this unofficial sequel—a gratifyingly bloody and piratical tale, dominated by one of fiction's great hero-rogues, the endlessly cunning, forever evil Long John Silver. Wibberley, in his foreword, tells how he came to write *Flint's Island*, "I realized I must myself, however unworthy, attempt to supply the story of what happened to the remaining treasure or die with that question, raised in childhood, unanswered."
