Non-fiction: Burl's big hardback "Stone Circles of..." (the most recent edition).

Fiction: Steven Erikson's "Malazan Book of the Fallen" (10 vols).

CD: Joy Division: "Unknown Pleasures", although if it was a truly desert island I might go for Virginia Astley's "From Gardens Where We Feel Secure" to remind me of greenery and birds. And can't we have a single to go with it? In which case "Atmosphere/Dead Souls" is coming too.

Photo of an artifact: The little brown pottery dog on display in the Thailand part of the British Museum. He's called Bobby.
