    Stephen Stanton is an incredible talent - not only is this a remarkable audiobook with the highest production values (offered for free), but also unparallel in its uniquely distinct execution of its memorable cast of characters. Each one - from Jim to Long John; are so fitting in their aspect that belief in each of them not being living breathing pirate brethren is completely suspended. It is astonishing to think on the fact this work was created by a lone individual. I honestly can not think of another audio book which can hold claim to the positive attributes of this truly admirable work and ostensible labour of love. Thank you. Stephen - many children have found something special here, to be sure.

      Hi Kironyo! As a voice actor, I rehearse the dialogue just like anything else I'm going to record: tv, films, etc. Yes, the language & grammar is anitquated, so it takes a bit of prep time! :)
