Summary: Good, but not the best
Review: This book is well worth reading, although it isn't the best book in the Xanth series. Like "A Spell for Chameleon" and "The Source of Magic", the plot zips from one action-filled adventure to the next, and there's plenty of light-hearted humor. However, some of the jokes and puns start to feel a little bit flat, and the 'surprise ending' really isn't much of a surprise.

Summary: Non stop action
Review: This is one of the very good books in the Xanth series. It is one of the 6 or so books in the series that comes close to capturing the plot and writting of the first book. This book jumps straight into action. And we get a history lesson of Castle Roogna. The book is filled with suspense and irony.

Summary: a very good Xanth novel
Review: This is the third book in Piers Anthony's Xanth series. The book takes place 12 years after the events in The Source of Magic. Bink's son is twelve years old, and has a Magician Class talent. Dor can talk to inanimate objects (they audibly speak to him). Dor is the heir apparent to the throne of Xanth, but he still has to deal with the same issues that any 12 year old might have to deal with. In his case, loneliness. King Trent, in hopes to help mature Dor, sends him on a quest to The Good Magician Humphrey to discover a way to reanimate the Zombie Jonathon. Millie the Ghost, no longer a ghost loves Jonathon, but Jonathon is still a zombie. Humphrey knows of a way to get an elixir to heal Jonathon, but it can only be acquired from the Zombie Master, a Magician who lived 800 years earlier. The Good Magician gives Dor a spell to put him into a tapestry that shows the events of that time period. In this way, Dor occupies the body of a Mundane warrior during the 4th Wave of Mundane Invasion. The King at the time is the legendary King Roogna. In Dor's quest for the elixir he encounters the Magicians of the time and gets involved in the very civil conflict between King Roogna and the Magician Murphy. This book is one of the better Xanth novels (i.e. one of the first Xanth novels) and while it gives part of the history of the land (always important), it also introduces characters who will later become important players in the series (Dor, Iris, Murphy, Vadne).

Summary: A funny and exciting read!
Review: This, like all of the Xanth "trilogy", has a special place in my heart. This book gives you a great insight to the side of a story you never thought you'd see... the spider on the wall. Through the adventures of the two main characters, you become quite fond of the spider and his gullible friend. To all of the Xanth characters I give a thumbs up!
