Let’s talk adventure novels.
What is a great adventure I can read to follow up after Don Quixote?
I have already read the greatest adventure ever told, The Count of Monte Cristo, so that’s off the table.
I was thinking Musashi, but I am open to suggestions.

I humiliated myself in high school AP class calling this book "Don Quicks-otay." I still feel douche chills

It’s okay, Pewdiepie read the entire book and did a video on it and called it “Don Key-Shawn”

I'd recommend Last of the Mohicans and the other "Leatherstocking Tales" by James Fenimore Cooper.

That's not a wrong pronunciation though

Yes it is. Where the fuck do you see the the "awn" sound at the end of Don Quijote?

Papillion is a brilliant adventure novel, you’d be missing out on a true classic by not reading it.
