About this listen

Orphaned John Trenchard grows up in the village of Moonfleet with his aunt, entranced by the local legend of the ghostly Blackbeard, who rises each winter night to search for his lost diamond. While conducting his own hunt for the treasure, John is trapped in the church crypt and discovers the true secret of the village: smuggling. Taken under the wing of the gruff innkeeper and chief smuggler, Elzevir Block, John begins a dangerous adventure which will see him in a hair-raising chase along a precarious cliff path and deciphering a hidden code in an ancient castle. Moonfleet is a thrilling story of revenge and betrayal, of loyalty and great sacrifice, but it is above all a story about friendship.

What did you like most about Moonfleet?

Revisiting this classroom classic after many years was a real treat

What was one of the most memorable moments of Moonfleet?

All good! Great book!

What three words best describe the narrators’s voice?

Some very unusual accents that definitely do not exist in the British Isles. So funny when Americans fail to do British! :)

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No!

Memorable performance by Colonial Radio Theatre Players. Memorable for all the wrong reasons!
