On Stranger Tides

So, I created a tropes article for Tim Powers' novel On Stranger Tides, over at the TV Tropes Mirror Wiki: http://tvtropesmirror.wikia.com/wiki/On_Stranger_Tides. I actually left out a few specifics, since I'm not really sure how to use the spoiler function on that site, and I know most people haven't read the novel yet.

But you should. Especially if you're a fan of the Monkey Island videogame series, or even if you're into fantasy combined with science, or the generic pirate genre. It's a really good read, in my opinion. I'm eager to see what elements they keep in the new Pirates of the Caribbean adaptation.

Oh, and I'm not exactly a brilliant writer, so the article could definitely use some love and improvement. And if any of you Eddie Tropers want to take elements and paste them on Eddie's Personal Wiki (and improve them even), go ahead... the article itself takes a few trope examples from the Tim Powers page over there, and Lord knows the mirror wiki only exists to copy tvtropes information in a more favorable environment. Plus, it'd really be a shame if you guys got a specific page for Pirates of the Caribbean 4, before you got a page for this enjoyable novel!
