The Spanish Cave Kindle Edition

3.8 3.8 out of 5 stars 8 ratings

A twelve year-old boy finds terror and adventure inside a Spanish cave

When his parents died, Dick stepped aboard a ship on the Thames and left England behind forever. He made his way to Spain, where he found work as a fisherman. Life at sea is difficult, but since learning to speak their language, Dick has found the Spanish to be the most hospitable people on earth. They call him Ricardito and treat him as one of their own. It is an idyllic life—until the day he makes his discovery.
 
Dick is fishing with a friend when their net drags the skull up from the bottom of the forbidding Cave of the Angels. Although the locals warn against exploring the mysterious cave, Dick cannot resist. Dared by one of his friends to spend a night there, Dick ventures inside. Something terrible lurks inside the Cave of the Angels, but there is no creature of the sea that can frighten Ricardito.

I read this story as a teenager more than once. Now about 50 years later, I enjoyed it just as much.

This was the second book I ever read when I was in the 5th grade. I have read it many times since, just for old times. It is a great story of a young boy learning to live as a man, combined with a mystery....what could be better. My 5 stars does not mean this is great literature, it's because it meant a lot to me. I have been an avid reader ever since, which has lead me through college to a professional career and I might owe it all to this little book!
Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2019
Geoffrey Household has always been one of my favorite writers. I recommend it to teens and those who are young at heart. A young boy who has lost his parents takes up residence in a seaport town in Spain. A cave on the beach holds a secret that no one in town will discuss. During a storm, he is swept into the cave to face a monstrous horror.
