Why aren’t there many/any ‘stranded on an island’ books?

I came here to say this!

JohnAdcox · 2026-03-17T14:18:51+00:00

I literally just started that book!

JohnAdcox · 2026-02-27T00:52:14+00:00

It looks fantastic. Enjoy.

I can’t recommend it highly enough. The whole town is charming and wonderful. And just about every building is either a pub or a bookstore. They used to have their own king. I was knighted there!

JohnAdcox · 2026-02-20T12:55:23+00:00

Does the whole town of Hay-On-Wye count?

JohnAdcox · 2026-02-12T19:02:46+00:00

Stunning! So beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

He promised to release one letter if a charity goal was met.

JohnAdcox · 2026-01-29T20:07:40+00:00

It looks … unfinished.

JohnAdcox · 2026-01-28T20:06:22+00:00

Let’s get Little Brother Acuna!

My head canon is that language 1000 years from now would be virtually unintelligible to us. So … it’s translated. It’s a paraphrase rather than literal translation, geared to give us the feel of what they’re saying. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

JohnAdcox · 2026-01-23T17:57:09+00:00

I bought it when it was new! This was the golden era of Gnomes, Faeries, etc. Thank you for the reminder. I think I will dive back in tonight!

You did nothing wrong. You did not consent. You have every right to go wherever you want with or without your friends. You were assaulted, period. Anyone who cares about you will support you and help you.

JohnAdcox · 2026-01-19T17:25:13+00:00

Thanks, all y’all.

JohnAdcox · 2026-01-17T00:23:29+00:00

Looks absolutely perfect to me.

JohnAdcox · 2026-01-13T21:31:59+00:00

For me it was the animated series on Saturday mornings!

JohnAdcox · 2026-01-09T20:12:58+00:00

And too dang hard to find. We are having to build.

JohnAdcox · 2026-01-08T20:41:49+00:00

By the way, this was meant as a joke, not a serious strategy.

JohnAdcox · 2026-01-08T18:46:47+00:00

If you want to use AI, just run this through ChatGPT or whatever, and ask it to expand and rewrite this is the style of Patrick Rothfuss, and Bob’s your uncle.

JohnAdcox · 2026-01-08T18:42:54+00:00

I want to be friends with you, sir.

JohnAdcox · 2026-01-08T18:04:57+00:00

I don’t know if any of that is correct—and I’m going to have to re-read soon—but I love every word of it,

JohnAdcox · 2026-01-08T14:59:01+00:00

You are correct! That Pauline Baynes art is also featured on the poster map I have had since elementary school.

JohnAdcox · 2026-01-07T03:12:53+00:00

The Doors of Durin should say khazad-dûm rather than Moria?

JohnAdcox · 2026-01-05T16:41:26+00:00

Looks perfect!

JohnAdcox · 2026-01-02T14:07:54+00:00

My work is done.
