Underland Press and Jeff VanderMeer are building a book called If You Lived Here: The Top 30 All Time Best Science Fiction and Fantasy Worlds. It’s not just a compendium, but also a tour guide to some of the best fantasy worlds ever conceived.

But wait! There’s more!

The creators of the books are looking for your suggestions on which fantasy worlds should be in the book! Are you a big fan of Middle Earth? Is Ringworld where it’s at? Perhaps you give props to Arrakis, Lankhmar or the Budayeen? Do you think Mesklin is the “Best Planet Ever”? The publisher, Victoria Blake says, “We’ll also be soliciting bookseller opinions and creating a dialogue about why we find imaginary settings so compelling.”

Be heard! They’re taking nominations now and they just might ask if they can use what you write when it’s time to go to press.

Long live [Insert your favorite science fiction or fantasy locale here]!
