Rating: Summary: Excellent book for those who like crazy magic Review: A Spell For Chameleon is a wonderful book. In the magical world of Xanth, almost anything can happen, from a carpet flying overhead to trees growing food and clothing for any passerby. The characters find themselves in all sorts of kooky dilemmas, keeping the reader guessing as to what a character will stumble upon next (if it's a Tangle Tree, they're in for a fight). From colored hail storms to computers that can control others actions, these books are nonstop fun and fantasy!
Rating: Summary: Great Book Review: I love this book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the first novel I've read by anthony, but it won't be the last. This book has done a great job with fantasy wrighting. I recomend this book to all.P.S. if you like my review e-mail me. P.S.S. I'm a 6th grader!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rating: Summary: I love this series! Review: I started at the beginning of the series, and own almost all of them. I started reading them out loud to my teenagers every evening, and they have all grown to love them as well as to enjoy reading in general. Mr. Anthony has a fabulous flair for making new worlds, with new rules, and making them work. Wonderful stuff! Great Fun to read and to re-read. The only bad thing is I can't find how to go to Xanth. I think I'd be OK there; tangle trees and all.
Rating: Summary: Xanth lover till the end Review: I have read this book along with the rest of the Xanth novels. I have also read a number of his other books. I think Mr. Anthony has mastered the writing of fantasy and Sci-Fi. This is one of the best Xanth books in my opion with a plot that comes to the end and makes you think back in the book. It also opens the gate for many sequeals and a wonderful world of fantasy. I wish Peirs many more years of happiness and productive writing.
Rating: Summary: a great novel Review: The first book in the Xanth series, and one of my all time favorites. I have read every book in the series, and this is my second favorite, after "Roc and a Hard Place". If you read it and didn't like it, take a second look. I didn't like it the first time I read it, but am glad I gave it another look.
Rating: Summary: Not only for adults Review: I credit this book with incenting my daughter to become a reader. She was 8 years old and frustrated with the dull readings she had to read in school. I got her started on a Spell for Chameleon, and she never looked back. It is a delightful book, well focused, and complete. But beyond that, it is an excellent tool for exciting the imagination of young readers. If you enjoyed this series, try On a Pale Horse.
Rating: Summary: An interesting fantasy's that dosn't leave anything out. Review: This book Leaves no gaps in the story it raps everything up properly and just slightly leaves it open to a sequal. This book is one of many all fantasy readers should read. I enjoyed the book thoroughly, it was a book that you just wanted to know what happened next. If you enjoyed this book of another world that is normal to the charaters then you would probably enjoy the "Myst" books. all in all fantasys dont get much better or more intelligent then this.
Rating: Summary: A fun and Interesting voyage through magical lands. Review: A Spell For Chameleon is one of my all time favorite books. I would recomend it to anyone who doesn't want to read BORING and uninteresting content for the first part of the book. Once I read this book I rushed to the store and bought the next couple books in the series by Piers Anthony. I really like how the author creates fun unforgetable unique characters and gives you clear mental pictures of the lands and magical things. No one of his books is the same but you can easily identify him as the author for his creative way of writing. If you haven't read any of his books in the Xanth series I strongly recomend you read A Spell for Chameleon.
Rating: Summary: The First of Xanth Review: Great Book! Spawned the 'Magic of Xanth' Series, still going strong today. Great fantasy novel laced with a lot of good laughs. Take your chances, You'll like it, if not love it(As I do)
Rating: Summary: I love this book!!! Review: This is the best book I have ever read. The book introduced me to the greatness of Piers Anthony. After finishing this book I went on to read all through the series. All of his books kept me up at all hours of the night. This is definitely a book for all those who wish for a great adventure. Its a very light book and is easy to read. It is also great to learn about different morals. Honor and other things. Despite the fact that it does have slight sexual content, it is nothing more than what you would see on Television or in a rated G movie. Its a book for all ages and I definitely recommend it to all!!
