A sequel to the adventure story Treasure Island is to be written by the former Poet Laureate Sir Andrew Motion.

Robert Louis Stevenson originally wrote his tale of pirates, including Long John Silver, for his stepson in 1883.
Sir Andrew says it is one of his favourite books and that he wants to create a tale "packed with its own adventure, excitement and pathos".
Return to Treasure Island, which is due to be published in 2012, will return to the story a generation later.
Now, THAT be a tale worth waitin' on! I just didn't wish I had to!

It wasn't that great, but it did have Robert Newton portarying LJS again was the movie, "Long John Silver" which was an unofficial sequel to Disney's "Treasure Island"
Just throwing that out there. I'm sure this book will be much better.
