Adventure Fans
So how many adventure fans do we have? What are you currently reading?
I'm currently reading Brown Wolf and Other Stories by Jack London. When I found this site I couldn't decide what to pick first so I went to the category search and picked the first thing on the list. Just so happens I've been a Jack London fan since elementary school.

I am reading The Three Musketeers, I loved Count of Monte Cristo and had always wanted to read Three Musketeers, dailylit gave me an excuse to try it. Compulsion, that is a great idea to start at the beginning, I thought about doing that as well, but opted for dumas instead. Have fun reading, dailylit is a great website.

Almost half way through 3 Musketeers and loving it. And I'm sticking with dailylit - trying to get at least 2 sections a day just so I can finish quicker. Any recommendations for my second book from dailylit?

I'm new, but I'm planning on reading Robinson Crusoe first. I joined hoping ya'll had some newer and more stuff, but it'll be great to read some of the classics I've never got to read before.

If you are reading "The Three Musketeers" by Dumas, do not forget that it is only the beginning! "Twenty Years After" follows, then "The Vicomte de Bragelonne" (which is often split into smaller parts, in English usually "The Vicomte de Bragelonne", "Louise de la Vallière" and ending with "The Man in the Iron Mask"). Great stuff...

Stranger in a Strange Land is an amazing book! I urge everyone to read it, even though its now difficult to find- I believe its out of print, but I found a copy in a used paperback rack.

my brother and I read Stranger in a Strange Land when we were in high school. We read the same copy at the same time, stealing and hiding it from each other. It is an amazing book! It has been over 35 years! I will have to read it again.

Finishing the last 3 instals of "The Virginian" nice adventure/romance. I loved the "Further Adventures of Robinson Caruso" and never knew it even existed. I'm also a fan of Heinlin's "Stranger in a Strange Land". I've already read most of Dumas but "The Count" may be coming up on my list soon. Recently finished the "100 ideas for successful Business" or at least that is what it was about and that was pretty good. I used some quotes from that when I made a suggestion to CORPORATE. (No response to date). Great reading to all!

The best ever adventure stories are The Leatherstocking Tales. Unfortunately this site doesn't have any of them. This series includes the book "Last of the Mohicans." It has everything -- bloodshed and violence, captivity, close brushes with eminent death, rescues, cliff-hangers (literally), and my hero, Chinkgachgook. Must read!

We do have "The Deerslayer" and "The Last of the Mohicans," and if folks are interested in reading the rest of the Leatherstocking Tales we can add them to our production queue. Thoughts?

Of course you should have them all. And everything else, for that matter, despite the recent extensions of copyright legislation supported by Disney who, in fact, never credited the writers of all those fairytales but now wants to maintain control of them.

I don't know how much of an adventure it is, but I'd say it very well could be... I just read "The Swiss Family Robison" for the first time and couldn't put it down, sometimes doing 3 to 4 or more installments per day!!
