I know I'm only halfway through, but I feel like this should be titled "Why Sindbad and Islands Don't Mix" or something along those lines. No matter how many islands this guy goes to, he still wants to travel the world! I'm trying to decide if I should try to include every story but a little shortened, or stick to one and make it different. I think the more realistic option would be to focus on one voyage. My favorite, by far, was the trip to the valley with the large diamonds and big birds. Even though I was slightly annoyed at Sindbad, I think he was really clever in that scene. I could never have guessed about the large hunks of meat being thrown down, but it's smart. I like that it's all told from Sindbad's point of view. It's comically dramatic, of course, but without a doubt, entertaining.
