J.P. Ashman asked P.H. Solomon:

If you could spend a week in any fantasy world you've read, as yourself, where would you go?

P.H. Solomon That's an excellent question since most fantasy worlds are fraught with conflict and danger - not exactly places for even an adventure vacation. I think the extension of the question would be what place would you visit since it's only a week. Middle-earth is an obvious start since it was so well described and a good place to stay would be Rivendell. Another detailed world that appeals to me is that of Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time where there are any number of interesting cities as well as Ogier Steddings and the Aiel Waste if you like deserts. I'm also interested in An or Caithnard from McKillip's Riddlemaster Trilogy. Pern is good for getting around well since you might have access to flight with a dragon. A week would really be either too short to really see something or just enough time to get into some real danger!
