Fictional World

I was asked a question in "Ask the Author" which I took too long to think about, so I am answering it in my blog. The question was "which fictional book would I like to live in and what would I do in it?" I narrowed it down to four but I still think I am missing THE ONE.
There are stories I love but would not want to be in such as "The Last of the Mohicans"- love the era and setting plus Hawkeye, Chingachgook and Uncas are some of my favorite fictional characters but the danger they continually face would be stressful. I thought about the "Hobbit" as I love the Shire and Hobbit houses, but after some thought, Michael Crichton's "Timeline" won out. I originally wanted to be an archaeologist and I really like the medieval era and his book combined both in a fascinating adventure. I would like to be one of the students (like Kate) that go back in time to rescue the professor.
