About this listen

 In this spirited and romantic saga, a young heir named David Balfour meets his miserly uncle Ebenezer, who has illegally taken control of the Balfour estate. Ebenezer kidnaps David and plots to have him seized and sold into slavery on a ship to the Carolinas. A couple of days into the voyage, a shipwreck throws David together with David Break, a Scotsman returning from political exile in France, and the two of them journey together. They are witnesses to the murder of Colin Campbell, the "Rio Fox" of Glenure, and suspicion falls on them. What follows is a perilous journey across the Highlands. Kidnapped is a classic of high adventure.(P)1989 Blackstone Audiobooks Classics Young Adult Fiction Teen Fiction

Pretty Good

Good narrator, although had a hard time focusing on the story. Just the main characters running around Scotland mostly, but still a decent adventure novel.

A classic tale

I suppose I read Kidnapped as a child, but I don’t remember it. The story started a bit slow for me, but eventually got into it. Decent narration. Looking forward to Catriona, the sequel.
