But ‘Robinson Crusoe’ is good. For a solid couple months after finishing it, I was still daydreaming about some kinda survival shelter-building game set on a tropical island — only a mobile one, because I didn’t want to be perched at the desktop more than necessary.
Have you read the original? It’s half book, half bible study. There are modern copies with most of the religious context removed or shortened which are great.
I need to recheck exactly how ‘unabridged’ my audiobook was (I typically search for a while to make sure I’m getting the whole package). At least, I’m vaguely certain it wasn’t modernized regarding the language, since I would hope English from 1719 is fairly understandable — but yeah, it’s quite ornate. I might’ve blacked out the religious parts for their small relevance to the adventure part.
