I'm in Sarantium, Guy Gavriel Kay's alternate fantasy version of Byzantium. I dunno, it seems like kind of a violent place, though I would like to see the chariot racing!!
I’m in a small town in Alabama (Boy's Life by Robert McCammon). It’s the beginning of the Civil Rights movement, and I was about the same age as the young boy in the story in 1964. I’m not sure I would like to live in Alabama anyway (too hot & humid & no “real” 4 seasons), but especially not during this time period.

LOL! My library loan for that one just came in so that's up next!

Being able to travel by spaceship would be amazing but facing a compound mind alien force would be so frightening!
