The author of Treasure Island delivers a “colorful plot and tense family drama . . . You couldn’t ask for more fun in a novel—it even has pirates” (The Guardian).

During the Jacobite Risings of 1745, two Scottish brothers battle for the family inheritance in what “is commonly regarded as [Robert Louis Stevenson’s] greatest full-length work” (The Atlantic).

“[The Master of Ballantrae] has the adventurous spirit of Treasure Island, the romantic 18th-century Scottish setting of Kidnapped, the obsession with doubles and divided selves that makes Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde such a resonant parable, and a climactic image as horrific as that in The Body Snatcher. Its blend of historical romance, travel fantasy and gothic nightmare makes it deeply pleasurable.” —The Guardian

“If a strong story, strongly told, full of human interest, and absolutely original in its situations, makes a masterpiece, then this may lay claim to the title.” —Arthur Conan Doyle
