Paul Michael Peters:
If you could travel to any fictional book world, where would you go and what would you do there?
Paul Michael Peters
I am rather fond of Earth. To my great fortune, I have had the chance to see a good deal of Earth and am pretty impressed with her. So when I read fiction or scifi that includes the attack or destruction of Earth, I tend to cheer for the Earthers.
That said - one of my favorite scifi books is the Hitchhikers Guide series, where we discover early on the destruction of our home and that we are all just programs in the greater super computer designed by mice... But I wouldn't want to live in that fictional world either.
Ring World has too many moving sidewalks for me, and the Bobiverse is rather sad... I'll stay where I am and create other worlds.
