BTT - My first!

I've never done a Booking Through Thursday post but I LOVE the today's topic so I just had to join in!

The questions of the day are:

1. Are there any particular worlds in books where you’d like to live?
2. Or where you certainly would NOT want to live?
3. What about authors? If you were a character, who would you trust to write your life?

I'm so glad you asked!

1. First choice - and this was WAY easy to pick - Pern, the world created by Anne McCaffery. If you haven't read her books you MUST, you ABSOLUTELY MUST. I'd suggest starting with the brief trilogy Dragonsong/Dragonsinger/Dragondrums. Why Pern, you ask? Dragons, dragon riders, fire lizards, bonding between dragon/fire lizard and human, intelligent dolpins, master harpers, rural life, and yes some danger but not too much, and a whole "lost" history to reconstruct. You can check out the Pern Museum to get an idea of this world. Cool, huh?

2. Definitely not someplace creepy - that's for sure!

3. The first author that came to mind is (the late) Robert Jordan. He's the genius behind the Wheel of Time series that I rave about in my left sidebar. His characters are all complex people and he shows their flaws alongside their attributes. I think he'sd be the most honest writer of my character. Plus he's great at creating story lines so I KNOW he'd make my life more interesting that it really is!
