What fantasy universe would you live in?

In summary, I love Lord Dunsany's The King Of Elfland's Daughter for its poetic beauty, but I would also prefer Narnia.

Some cyberpunk dystopia. Most of my favourite science fiction comes from the cyberpunk genre, Blade Runner, Akira, etc. I've always been a fan of big cities illuminated by towers of lights, Japan, China, New York, and now places like Dubai, it's like the complete opposite of nature and cyberpunk takes those concepts to the absolute extreme. I guess the reason I like science fiction is because it allows you to experience things that are on the boarders of impossible. I can look into the past, I'm experiencing the now but I can't see the future and I'd love to be able to go there... Perhaps if it weren't for my new found interest and appreciation for historical events.

If I really got to go to one, I'd prefer to write it myself, since I am the only one I realty trust. :)

I'd go with Harry Potter! As a kid, I always dreamed of boarding the Hogwarts express on platform 9¾ and travel to the Hogwarts castle, on the amazingly beautiful train route. I really like the old world where there were castles, big halls, countless passages, candles and lanterns, men with hair wigs etc. Hogwarts is just like that! As an adult now, I have outgrown Harry Potter, but I am still a big fan of places like Hogwarts!

Definitely Harry Potter's world, I'd love to get my hands on a wand and perform magic :D

Or even a virtual videogame world, like Sword Art Online... though it may be WAY to dangerous

The Shire would probably be safe enough for me.
except when saruman invades with uruk hai, the old forest attacks, the Nazgul attack buckland and the white wolves ravage every thing. but other then that relatively safe.

Just hide out at Bilbo's place. It was apparently untouched throughout the entire series.

Except for the most dangerous thing in the Shire, Lobelia Sackville-Baggins.

I would love to be in the would that was in the book number of the The geometry of the novel's universe contains six dimensions; the three spatial dimensions known to the real world, and three time dimensions - t, the real world's temporal dimension, τ (tau), and т (teh). The continua device can travel on all six axes. The continua device allows travel into various fictional universes, such as the Land of Oz, as well as through time. The device was installed into a modified air car called Gay Deceiver with the cars oun A.I.

Too trendy to say "Dr. Strange's Universe"? 'Cause I read Doc in the early '60s. His was the most "different" of the comic books I had in that two foot x two foot by two foot box in my closet.

I'd pick the Forge of Empires universe because the whole city belongs to me and I can wipe out buildings and people at a whim I feel particularly maniacal at a given moment.

I think at my age I would like a simple life, so I choose Brigadoon. If I was younger, I might like Xanth, if I were one of the many fortunate folk who have a small magical skill to enjoy.

Well, if you want to live in Xanth you could always move to Florida.

Hi hsdrop:

Florida and Xanth are geographically the same, but the culture is much different.
