The New Labour Party manifesto of 1997 - pure fiction but if they had done what they *said* they were going to do that would have been fine - remember "Things can only get better"?.
Not that any other politicians fiction dressed up as manifestos and promises are any less pure words which will never become true!
Well having got that off of my chest a better one would be a school essay my second wrote when he was about eleven about him playing football for Leeds United and them winning everything - pure fiction again and even though it was *possible* that he could have played professional football Leeds winning everything?!!! (he even had them beating Manchester United 4-3 at Wembley after being 3-0 down - guess who scored a hat-trick after coming on as substitute!).
How about The Book of Revelations? - Well let's get Christmas out of the way first!

Blessed be, what a scary thought! I have read fiction all my life, and in most of it, there is a lot of conflict and adventure that often turns out badly, even tho the end is usually good. I don't know if I would want any of that stress and drama in my life. I love to read it, but then when I am finished I can go back to my own life. I like this period in history, with the richness of the tapestry of life that has gone before, and the anticipation of the future.
But if I had to choose, I would pick Mary Stewart's Crystal Cave series about Merlin and King Arthur. She makes it seem so true, that I believe it should really have been.

Now that's an thrilling question *stars it* One e book? Oh, guy. i for my section want to assert Twilight, because of the fact the thought a guy (nicely, vampire) like Edward Cullen is walking around in this earth could be a astounding difficulty to renowned. yet i visit flow with Harry Potter as a replace, because of the fact the thought there is an entire different worldwide interior of our "ordinary" Earth is a good greater astounding concept. I advise, we are actually not getting everywhere with a worldwide exterior of Earth, are we? Ha. Plus the magic. understanding that magic is real. The Harry Potter sequence gets so in-intensity with the entire concept of magic and the worldwide of magic that this is to perplexing to not have faith. Plus it makes me ask your self approximately the place a school of Witchcraft and Wizardry could be placed in united states of america of america... and what it could be called. in all risk something eagle-proper. They have been enormously patriotic back while united states of america of america replaced into first (formally) formed....

Piers Anthony's world of Xanth would be pretty cool, read them as a kid - beautiful fantasy setting and every member of the world is born with a unique magical ability. But unfortunaly I am a much darker soul in reality and would fit in much better in Robert E Howard's world of Hyboria, the realm of Conan.

The Chronicles of Narnia of course!!! then yet again, I'd like to live in Narnia before the Calormens invaded and Narnia ended. I did think of Eragon too, but I don't think I'd like all the horrid wars and stuff that go on and the weird creepy Galbatorix and all that other evil stuff.

LORD OF THE RINGS....you mean it's not real?
Sometimes when I look at the lovely English countryside near my home, I feel i could be in the Shire.
and when i see the nasty seamier side of life in towns/pubs, I definately think of Orcs! Tolkien always said orcs aren't so much fantasy beings as 'degraded men' and when the movies came out I noticed right away that orcs looked like some of the more unpleasant characters around town--foul mouthed,violent, shaved heads, gross facial piercings etc.
