Summary: Science Fiction Dentist Comedy
Review: A Sci-Fi about a dentist who is kidnapped and forced to perform his services on alien beings that are not from this world. Book was fun to read and funny.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Intergalactic Dentistry brought right to your bookshelf...
Review: A simple dentist is just doing his job when he ends up operating on an alien. He impresses the aliens so much that he is kidnapped to train dentists on the aliens' home world. This book is excellent, and indeed an interesting journey for imaginative minds. One of Anthony's best single books in print.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The book that turned me on to Piers Anthony
Review: I originally read this book when it was new. Browsing an airport book stand for a sci-fi to read, the jacket design caught my eye. I followed this with reading the blurbs: "Can a mild-mannered dentist from Earth make it in the high-powered world of galactic dentistry?" Sounded like fun. I was completely unfamiliar with Piers Anthony's works before this. He subsequently became one of my favorite authors.

Summary: Prostho Plus ¿ Intergalactic Dentistry at its¿ BEST!
Review: Piers Anthony is best known for his popular fantasy / comedy series Xanth, but before he became bogged down in the puns of Xanth, he wrote some great science fiction and fantasy of world class. "Prostho Plus" is one of those really great books.

What sets this book apart in the spirit of "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" is that the protagonist is an unlikely dentist catapulted off terrestrial Earth into the highly dangerous field of intergalactic dentistry. Dr. Dillingham, the human dentist, is propelled from alien mouth to alien mouth performing badly needed procedures for xenoforms in pain. The book is hilarious and Anthony's ideas about alien mouths are both interesting and innovative.

I highly recommend this very amusing and well-written novel!

Summary: Great flair for exposition makes this a fun read for anyone.
Review: Piers Anthony manages to take earth-bound dentist Dr. Dillingham and launch him into galactic space to fix the dental woes of species never before dreamed of on this earth! Anthony leads the reader on a merry chase throughout the galaxy culminating in our hero achieving dental nirvana at the Galactic school of dentistry. A great flair for exposition lets the reader see the creatures Mr. Anthony has dreamed up for our hero. A pleasant read that is well worth the trip

Rating: 5 stars
