Quote:<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Underland Press<\/a> and Jeff VanderMeer are building a book called If You Lived Here: The Top 30 All Time Best Science Fiction and Fantasy Worlds<\/span>. It’s a compendium, of sorts, but also a tour guide. It’s a walk down memory lane, and a place to start new dreams.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

<\/p>\n

This time VanderMeer is looking for some help.<\/span><\/p>\n

Quote:<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
We’re looking for readers’ all-time favorite secondary worlds, from Middle Earth to Ring World, from Dune to Lankhmar and beyond…<\/p>\n

We’re taking nominations now. Just fill out the form<\/a> and submit it. That simple. If you feel like waxing poetic about your favorite second world, we might ask you if we can use what you write when it’s time to go to press. Regardless, we’ll keep you updated about which worlds get picked, and about the book as it gets closer to publication.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n
