>book has a crudely "drawn" map in the beginning
>"drawn" map shows the destination the characters aren't sure of the existence of and don't know how to arrive there
What the fuck is the point of reading if the map shows that they're going to arrive there at some point

There is no longer a reason for anyone to ever hire a graphic artist again

>Yeah, so, there's a river winding down to the southwest, some trees and I guess what must be a bog there. Across the lake are some mountains. A windmill, maybe a town?

You read a bad book. I had an edition of The Left Hand of Darkness with such a map and it just got me curious about the story to come. Didn't spoil the plot.
