Ogre, Ogre

Summary: He could've done better
Review: I'm a pretty big fan of Piers Anthony, and of the Xanth series, but this book really ruined it. One of my friends was begining to read the seiris, she hit this book and simply stopped reading any Piers at all. I admit that the use of some puns were done well, but compared to most of the other books he's written, it simply didn't measure up.

Summary: Fantastic
Review: Ogre ogre was one of those books I couldn't put down.Anthony is a fantastic author and I consider myself a fairly good judge.His Xanth novels are some of the best books I've read. Ogre Ogre Captures you and takes you on an imaginative adventure.You really start caring for Smash.Discovering his human side at last he realizes that there is more to life than tramping around xanths wilderness and scaring creatures.

Summary: If magical creatures are your thing, then enjoy this!
Review: Ogre, Ogre has a myriad of magical creatures residing in the land of Xanth: ogres, fairies, nymphs, centaurs, goblins, dragons, dryads, brassies and more. As in a typical Xanth novel, our two heroes, Smash the Half Ogre and Tandy the Nymph Girl, approach the Good Magician Humphrey for answers to their questions. When Smash arrives, Tandy has served the customary year for her answer. Smash, being a normally stupid ogre, couldn't even remember what question he wanted to ask the Magician. The quest for both of their answers pairs Smash and Tandy up on the way to the home of the Ancestral Ogres. Along the way, Smash also becomes the protector of 6 other females with quests of their own. Plot twists occur as Smash battles for his and Tandy's souls in the gourd world from the Night Stallion himself. There are violent battles with several kinds of monsters, and Smash must decide whether to draw upon his ogre strength or his human intellect. It is only after Smash and Tandy reach their destination that they both realize how the Magician answered their questions for the best.

I don't necessarily see how the conclusion of this story makes sense, even in Xanth, but it was still enjoyable to read. I like the orge rhyming speech.

Summary: The Ogre's Tale
Review: Ogre, Ogre, is another fantasy masterpiece written by Piers Anthony in the series of Xanth. The Xanth according to the story is located south of a mundane state called Georgia, which the land of magic Xanth is actually Florida. The fifth series of the Xanth saga, the story another problem in the world of Xanth that has to be solve by a group of heroes to solve their problem, which is one of the reason I like this novel. Another reason I would rate this a four out of five is that these series would put a reader into suspense and would want a reader to continue reading this book and asking him or herself what would happen next? Furthermore, the different twist between the modern world words, ex. Catastrophe, eye-queue etc. makes this saga unique from different fantasy series. Ogre, Ogre, the seventh series of the Xanth Saga, introduces the giant sized Ogre named Smash. Smash although still talks in rhymes and looked terribly ugly, is still different from any ogres. The only difference that changes his life is that he is a vegetarian.

Summary: I had a great Vacation!
Review: Orginally, I only was going to read this to get an idea why a friend of mine is always calling himself an ogre. I wondered into Xanth having no clue what to expect except that their would be an ogre somewhere around. I found myself deep in the mysterious underground. I didn't see anything that caught my eye at first but I decided to investigate a little before I left. I was amazed by the things I found by exploring the underground and soon found myself aboveground. Again, I was totally enthralled by all. The more that I saw the more I was glad I stayed. Before I had to go back home, I had met many friends who have become dear to me. I had to sadly depart Xanth and reenter this Mundina that I exist in. I will not forget to visit again soon. The trip is well worth the effort. I will look forward to my next visit

Summary: Ogre, Ogle her...
Review: Smash and Tandy sittin' in a tree... not till later, at least. Piers strikes again with his puny (that is to say, full of puns) tales of the magic of Xanth. Good use of Chem Centaur, Goldy Goblin, Fireoak the Dryad, the Siren, et. al.- they're all a bunch of fun characters. And giving Smash his humanity- something he'd denied all his life despite his human mother- is a stroke of sympathetic brilliance. It makes you like the story more. One of the better Xanth novels.
