Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I just had to get in a classic this month and since I already had lined up a Lycanthropic version of this particular classic, I thought, "Hey! This is gonna be great!"
Cast away on a desert island... me and Mr. Friday sharing the same fate...
Yeah, well, it was certainly a fast and fun read, sharing all the usual things I have enjoyed from Tom Hanks, short stories of Stephen King, or any number of coolness from Lost.
Only, this is blunderbusses and goats. Cannibals and grateful captains. And such a pace of three decades in the space of a short novel. :)
Well! It sure is a popular idea! And redone about a million times, alas. Still, I'm glad to learn the origin of My Man Friday. :)
And for Halloween, seeing raven's corpses on poles. Muahahahaha
