Local DJs in Columbia, Mo who spend time drinking beer come up with fantastic questions on air and get crazy responses. If you were able to be transported to another reality based on a book or film, then which one would you choose and why?
Film?
24th Century of Star Trek through The Next Generation/Deep Space 9/Voyager.
Why? At almost 50, the medical advances have cured just about everything except the common flu. There are the rare outbreaks but the Starfleet medical Corps usually saves the day. Money isn't important within the Federation. You get to be in space and visit alien planets.
Book?
Wingman
Why? Just to fight for a shattered America and fight the good fight. Become an instant jet fighter pilot with training and experience flying a F-20 Tigershark since the hero of the story gets the only remaining F-16.
