About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of The Strange Adventures of Eric Blackburn by Harry Collingwood. Read in English by Tom Penn; Melissa Jean; Tom Donovan; Warren Kati; deongines; jenno; garyday Eric Blackburn's strange adventures begin when the ship on which he is engaged as fourth officer is struck by an enormous meteorite and sinks within minutes, and Blackburn is the sole survivor out of the 535 people on board that ship. Through extraordinary luck he reaches an overturned lifeboat into which he saves himself, and from which he is rescued by the Yorkshire Lass. The Yorkshire Lass, however, brings with it a new adventure, as it is on a quest for hidden treasure on a mysterious tropical island and is going to catapult Eric into unprecedented adventures. - Summary by Carolin
