Goodreads asked Joshua Banker:

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

Joshua Banker This is a challenging question for me. A number of my favorite stories are set in bleak, dystopian worlds that tend to be dangerous for the average person. The Stand, Dune, World War Z and most of Lovecraft's tales all feature scenarios that are actively hostile. Sci-fi and cyberpunk stories like Snow Crash and Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? promise a future that isn't entirely positive for the everyman. Magical lands of Lord of the Rings or the Harry Potter series provide beautiful vistas despite the dangers of their events.

In the end, I would likely want to visit the universe as its presented in Niven's Ringworld. This is a world of technological marvels, including space travel to new planets, where one might discover new experiences.
