Description
THE END OF THE WORLD
OR THE BEGINNING…
On to the shores of Texas a raging sea coughs up two castaways: Jim and Natty, shipwrecked on their way home from Treasure Island.
The Nightingale sunk, their silver gone, captured, weak and afraid, the pair steal a treasure they should have left well alone.
The adventure of the New World lies in wait…

Advance Praise
Praise for Silver:
'Silver…captures something of the old magic. The thrilling flight across moor and heather that Henry James admired in Kidnapped.... finds expression in Silver’s action scenes set amid Caribbean waters.'
Ian Thomson, Financial Times
'He reinvents Stevenson’s world to reveal its dark underside, illuminating both its mysterious beauty and its grim immortality. Silver provides a fitting sequel to Treasure Island, certainly, but also stands in its own right as a companion volume to a literary classic.'
Daisy Hay, Observer
'Motion's
book is sensitive and porous. It fits seamlessly into the groove left
by its parent, and yet is also something that is languidly original...
Though the book ends with a powerful affirmation, there is much
uncertainty that points to more. For which I, for one, fervently hope.'
Philip Womack, Literary Review
