Summary: It was an enjoyable book.
Review: I read this book years ago, when I was just getting into Anthony, and was totally captivated with the entire series. While he splashes sex around most freely, sometimes delving into taboo subjects (at least in the U.S.) his mix of science and magic still hold the reader's attention. If you like Anthonys Xanth novels, you'll probably enjoy this series.

Summary: Great series
Review: I read this series many years ago. I hope that he picks this series u again and starts to write more books. I don't care for Sci-fi as much as fantasy but this entire series gives a good balance of each.

Summary: Another frustratingly typical Anthony sequel!
Review: I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Piers Anthony books are like crack. They're everywhere, and once you start, you have to read them all. It's awful. Because everyone I know who's read them has read them all, and I suspect almost everyone who reads them reads them all, and yet at least a third of every one of them is exposition. You can skip whole chunks of any book that's not the first in a series, and you will miss nothing. It's like old newspaper serials, where "The Story So Far" would be twice as long as the new installment. I've been here before. I know these people. Get on with it. And this is not complicated stuff to begin with. This is not hard to pick up.

Summary: It was an enjoyable book.
Review: It was a lot like Split Infinity, in the way that it seemed to be written not quite for adults, but not for kids. These first two books took me a bit more to get through, but the ones after these get a bit more interesting. It's a pretty easy read too. It doesn't take long to read the whole book. It's like one of those books you read when you don't have much else to do, but it's more enjoyable than that. So anyways...I guess you'd have to read it to make your own opinion of it.

Summary: Introductory Course: How to Live in 2 Worlds, Simultaneously
Review: Journey with Stile, in a world of High-Tech--Juxtaposed with a Realm of Fantasy and Magick. Experience a world in-which you are not allowed to wear clothing (unless absolutely necessary), if you are not among the Elite...and a piece of Lingerie is a treasure to be kept safe, like gold or diamonds in our own world. Our hero is a man of Sports and a contender not-only in games and Olympic feats, but of quests in magickal lands... trying to survive assassination on both planes of existence! Even crossing-over is a danger to his life. This is very adventurous reading, with Sci-Fi & Fantasy...Futuristic, High-Tech & Magickal, Low-Tech scenarios...combined in a flowing epic of self-discovery and Mastership. You may have noticed, that I did not review the first book of the series ("SPLIT INFINITY") and opted for "BLUE ADEPT," instead.... Well, the cover of this book attracted me to the series (Glad it hasn't changed :) --So, I went with my...instincts...on this issue. Anyway, all the books are great! Make sure you don't forget "JUXTAPOSITION," or you will be left hangin' until you receive the next purchase. I loved the series and I suggest searching for all of Piers Anthony's novels.... This is a guy you can't go wrong with. So, there you have it--Introductory Course: How to Live in 2 Worlds, Simultaneously!

Summary: Piers Anthony is the Literature Adept!
Review: Piers Anthony is a Literature Adept! It's true. The man is encredible! I read his auto-biography (Bio of an Ogre), and it's great! I can just picture him in his cabin in Florida, writing great works of literature. The story of Stile, the next Scott Sethgreen, is magically transported from the world of Proton, to the world of Phase, is creative, and funny. There is no vernacular english spoken in Phase, and Stile suddenly becomes "The Blue Adept." His best freind is murdered by an unknown villain, who is coming for Stile next. Together with The Lady Blue, his charge, Sheen, his lovely robot, and the help of a Unicorn or two, magic harmonica in hand, Stile is off to destroy the enemy.
