Malta is featuring as one of the 10 most interesting out of 500 extraordinary islands in a new book by Frommers.
The book, Extraordinary Islands, began to take shape as a sort of life list, Frommers said adding that as the final list evolved the 500 were chosen from among thousands it might have included.
Its main criterion was to offer the 500 islands one would most want to visit — or perhaps stay on forever.
