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

It's well thought out, mysterious, and watching the spires of its engine firing up would be sight to sea, as would a trip on its sea. I think exploring it as the astronauts did, while the interior dark and thawing before the lights come on, that'd be something.

If Rama was already taken, I'd say the Ringworld from Larry Niven's book. I'd make sure I had a powered ship to explore it, and see if I could contribute to fixing it up some.(less)

I can give examples of two books I've read / are reading; The Book of Hidden Things, by Francesco Dimitri - a curious combo of reflection on friendship, dabbling with magic and (likely worse) the local mob. I'm currently reading Stories of Your Life and Others by Ted Chiang. I've already read three stories in that collection, and I'm looking forward to how Story of Your Life compares to the "Arrival" movie adaptation.(less)
