What Fantasy world would you choose?
First of all sorry if there is already a post like this but i searched and couldnt find one.
If you could pick to live in one fantasy world from a book what would you pick? Personally i am a big fan of Middle Earth or Narnia

Discworld. I prefer middle earth but it a lot more dangerous and boring without frodo.
I would love to meet rincewind and angua etc...

I really like Xanth, Tortall, and the worlds of Anita Blake and Princess Meredith. Faerie, Dune, and Dimension X are cool too. Maybe the universe of Damia?

TS, the Damia universe is merely this universe in the future. i would personally love Discworld, Valdemar, Xanth, or the Rowan/Damia time period.

you're welcome. see, i used to always wish that i had a dyheli from Valdemar around so that i could learn all the languages of the world in a few days with just a really bad headache as punishment. and of course, Xanth and its horrible pun-ishment (yes i know that was bad. i couldn't resist), and Discworld and its intrigue, and the Rowan/Damia time period for all the fun space travel.

I would have to say Middle Earth or Narnia also... but it depends when in Narnia. Because it wouldn't be too great to live there when the witch was still roaming and ruling... but if it was at the end of the series when they all are in that paradise then I would definitely choose Narnia.

Yes, I also like where I live...hey, Earang, maybe I know you, we both hail from Mirkwood! Oh, and welcome to the moot!
Actually, I have three favorites: ~Arda (of course! I live there!) ~Discworld ~Don't remember what it's called, but the world in which the Sabriel books (Garth Nix) take place. In the Old Kingdom, please! (yeah, I know it's dangerous, oh well.)

Middle-earth all the way! Although Disc world is awefully tempting too..... Tough choice

Aslan was Jesus if that's what your suspicions are.
I would choose Arda as my fantasy world of choice simply becuase of what it contains.

something i forgot to mention. . .
I think if it were the third world i mentioned, I would want to be an Abhorsen, which might be a problem, since I don't think I'm related to any, but I would hope I could be. Them or royalty or a Clayr librarian. So, if you could live in the fantasy world of your choice, who/what would you be, and what would you do?
