Goodreads asked David J. Forsyth:

If you could travel to any fictional book world, where would you go and what would you do there?

David J. Forsyth I've always been somewhat obsessed with prehistory and the mysteries of life before written language, so one fictional book world I wouldn't mind visiting is that of J. H. Rosny who wrote "The Quest for Fire" in 1911 about early human nomads and the important role that fire played in their lives. I haven't actually read the book, though it's on my list of intended reads. I did however see the 1981 movie, so I'm basing my answer on that. What would I do there?
Perhaps find out if I'm up to the challenge of surviving without all the trappings of modern civilization. Honestly, I don't think I am – too old now.
