A Spell for Chameleon

Rating:
Summary: A feast for fantasy lovers
Review: It was so refreshing to read Anthony's first Xanth novel. Not since The Lord of the Rings have I read such an absorbing and vibrant fantasy novel. The humor is first class along with the bizarre characters met by Bink along his epic journey.

Summary: It is a verry logical story.
Review: He writes verry good and strong storys. If you love a great adventure then you need to read this. It is a verry great story. You need to read this if you are a fantasy lover!! The magic could have happened. It was amazing. It seems as if it still could happen. I loved it. I read half the book in less than a day.( the secound half.) It was a page turning book.

Summary: I love Xanth!
Review: I read this book as a sixth grader, ten years ago. I have since read every Xanth book that has been published. I love the images that Piers Anthony's creations bring to mind. These books are all a delight to read.

Summary: The best of the series
Review: I have read the first 17 or so books in the Xanth series and nothing compares to this title. I would rate all the books including Night Mare and back to "A Spell for Chameleon" 5 stars, but after that the series gradually declines in value. I believe the reason for the degradation of interest in Xanth is that the landscape becomes less lethal in the latter books. In "A Spell for Chameleon", all off Xanth's fuana and even its flora represents a potential threat, and it makes the book more suspenseful. It could be read alone with out interest in future Xanth books and the final chapter wouldn't leave you hanging, yet it still leaves behind an interest in what future holds for Bink, the main character. A Spell for Chameleon is definitely one of the best titles there is in the Xanth series, and perhaps one of the best books I have ever read.

Summary: An excellent start to an excellent series...
Review: I first read this book a few years back to start the series off, and while I'm still only just past Golem in the Gears, I think this book to be the best in the series so far. I love how Piers Anthony can create this outrageous world and work it into its own reality. It makes the book entirely engrossing, and gave me something for my mind to chew on the whole way through. I like the style of the progressing story line, with all sorts of twists and things you never thought were there. So for Fantasy's sake, read this book!!!!

Summary: Wonderful !
Review: This encompassing adventure is a must read for anyone that wants to be transported to a magical world where dangers lurk and fascination abounds. Each step of the journey is an adventure in its own and so is discovering all the different characters and settings. Some nice twists and turns along the way and some nice thought reflections too. Very readable to anyone with a basic understanding of sword and sorcery. A book you really look forward to reading and picking up where you left off. Highly Recommended.

Summary: The most well-writen book in the series
Review: I have read all the Xanth books. This one was not the best, but it was so well-writen, I give it five-stars.

Rating:
Summary: It was an excellent book!!!
Review: It was an extrodinary introduction to the Xanth series and set a precedent for great books by Piers Anthony. It was very unusual, but really absorbed me. All out, it is one of my favorite books.

Summary: Piers Anthony at his best!
Review: Although this is the first Xanth novel, it wasn't the first Xanth novel I had read. After skipping all over the place for a few months, I decided to attempt to read them in chronological order. A Spell for Chameleon was really cool, and what I just learned recently is that Xanth was originally only supposed to be a trilogy.I won't ruin the ending for anyone who hasn't finished it yet, but I will say that there are happy endings all around--for Bink and Chameleon(and Fanchon, and Dee, . . .oh, never mind.)
