Stories of Xanth

[Rhiya Ravenwing]

Anybody read Pierce Anthony's Xanth stories?

[MNMinion]

Yeah I do. Im reading Zombie Lover right now.

[Ivellios]

I have, and loved them, but I stopped at Ogre, Ogre because I don't have any of the other books, and then moved on. The first is the best one, I think.

[Terex4]

I love the Xanth series. I'm currently on Demons Don't Dream at the moment. So far my favorite is Question Quest.

I wish Bink had been in more novels though, it seems by Nightmare he's developed his talent in more interesting ways.

[MNMinion]

I havent read them all yet and not in order becuase my school doesnt have them all and when they get them its like random.

[Rhiya Ravenwing]

i haven't read most of them, but i've got ogre, ogre in possession ATM, and i've read a couple of others. I like Harpy Thyme and Cube Route the best. Oh, and a Currant Event is also pretty cool.

[BitVyper]

I've read quite a few of them, but I really only like the first two, the ones that were centered on Bink. Dor was alright, and I couldn't stand Dolph.

[Terex4]

Unfortunately I don't have any past Demons Don't Dream, but until that point I've read them all in order. Dolph had great potential but he just didn't capture my interest very well.

I would have loved to have seem more needle cacti though. Fracto is an okay antagonist but he got old for me by his second appearance.

Dor had a fun talent that I would love to have. The mischief would never end!.
My favorite talent would have to be the King in Crewel Lye (I forgot his name).

[MNMinion]

Im not shure what king that book has but does King Trent ring a bell? Talent to transform living things.
I think Bink is pretty cool and for the life of me I cant remmember the guy thats immortal, or is it just crazy mad fast regeneration he has?

[Rhiya Ravenwing]

I like the skeleton in Heaven Cent the best. Very amusing.

[MNMinion]

I would have never thought of an idea of kicking a skeleton in the rear and it making itself into another form/position.
I just remmembered those one things, Wiggles I think they are called, those are pretty mean.

[Terex4]

The king I was refering to has the talent of reading the history of objects.
The immortal guy is Jordan the Barbarian. He's not immortal he just has Wolverine-like regeneration. Come to think of it he might be immortal but I doubt it. He'd be magician class if he were I would think.
I like the skeleton in Heaven Cent the best. Very amusing.
You mean Marrow Bones and Grace'l Ossein? They have an awesome talent.

I'm fond of the Xanth stories but I find Anthony's use of descritive writing overwhelming sometimes. Along with the puns, so…many…puns.

[Rhiya Ravenwing]

PUNS ARE PUNNY!!!!

Seriously, if you are one of them nerds that enjoy playing around with words as much as I do, we should make a club and try to think up of greater and eviller puns that'll make us go to pun hell :D

[Terex4]

Well if I were to come up with some puns for Xanth, I think a good one would be a gene pool.

Has Piers done oxymoron?

[CrushU]

I have read Xanth. It's good. It is a bit pun-y, but... That's one of the staples. I can't recall the books I've read, cept... 'Golem in the Gears', 'Ogre, Ogre', 'Night Mare', and 'The Dastard'. Just read the Dastard, where they have the 'Comic strips' which are zones of intense puns. And bad puns.

I prefer Anthony's Incarnations of Immortality series. Those rock.

[Rhiya Ravenwing]

Oxymoron's have been done in "Heaven Cent"

I loved the comic strips. They are awesome... as long as you stay out of them ^_^

Don't eat the My Grains... they hurt your head.
