Desert Island Books

Kelly's post has prompted another Desert Island question.

What 8 books would you take to a desert island?

You will be given:

  • one spiritual book of your choice (eg. The Bible)
  • The Complete Works of Shakespeare
  • Lord of the Rings
  • the SAS Survival Guide

The mobile boat library will return in a year when you can swap some books.

Please post or trackback your answer. If you are having a tough time deciding, maybe The Big Read will help you compile your list.

Calvin and Hobbes is an essential. I am going to have to try the Amber book and recommend it to my son. I am definitely going to have to give this some thought.

Hmm... did my trackback disappear?

Heh, nope. It's a "feature" that trackbacks don't automagically rebuild the page. I'm looking into training the gnomes to do that.

Do "complete works of" count? I have a few of those on my list so far.

Nope. :P That's for another desert island question I'm mulling over. Collected series are okay though.
