OK - since we're having so much fun with these multiple part questions, let's do ..... geography! .... unreal geography .... fictional geography!

The following list contains the names of fictional islands that were created as part of a written fictional work (novel, short story, etc.). For each island name, identify the book title and the author. The winner will be whomever scores the most points!

1. Alca/Penguin Island
2. Bali Ha'i - Tales of the South Pacific, James Michener (Issy +2 points)
3. Blefuscu - Gulliver's Travels Jonathan Swift (Issy + 2 points)
4. Caprona, a.k.a. Caspak
5. Devon Island
6. Esme, a.k.a. Isle Esme - Breaking Dawn by Stephenie Meyer (Daithi +2 points)
7. Hedeby - Steig Larsson (Issy + 1 point)
8. Indian Island - And Then There Were None, Agatha Christie (Issy + 2 points)

9. Kinakuta
10. Leshp
11. Mardi archipelago
12. Moahu
13. Roke Island - Earthsea by Ursula K. Le Guin (Daithi +2 points)
14. San Lorenzo
15. Tsalal
16. Kokovoko


Feeling really smart? Extra credit for these:
1. Abarat archipelago
2. Dolphin Island - Arthur C. Clarke, book of the same name (Issy + 2 points)
3. Lincoln Island
4. Pala
5. Paradise Island
6. Saint Honore
7. San Monique
8. San Piedro Island
9. Ship-Trap Island - The Most Dangerous Game (Issy + 1 point)
