Piers Anthony anyone?

[Myah]

How many Piers Anthony fans are out there?

I love every single book of his that I have read. I've not read them all (there are sooo many) but I really liked the Xanth novel about Dor going through the tapestry.. I can't remember the name. *slams head against desk repeatedly* That's going to bug me all night long. I really liked "A Roc and a Hardplace"

I also like other books by Piers Anthony, such as his Incarnations of Immortality series, and the Isle of Man (awesome book) I first started reading his books with the Apprentice Adept series, but now I can't find the final book anywhere.
I've also read Firefly, Tathum Mound, Virtual Mode and Fractal Mode, most of the Dragon's Gold series, If I Pay Thee Not in Gold, and Through the Ice.

I actually wrote to Piers Anthony when I was 14, and he replied..sent me some autographed book covers and posters. I still have them.

Ive read a few of his books. Mostly the Mode series. They were good. I read another of his which was an adaption of one Isaac Asimovs books. The Bicentennial man. Cant remember what the adaption was called though. Been a while.

i've only read the Xanth series and it's extremely creative and funny. The only thing i don't like is that he makes a lot of references of the female body... if you knew what i meant.

other than that, i've nothing against the books.

I love the Xanth series. Was the one you were thinking about Crewel Lye?
I think my favorite was a "Spell for Chameleon"
I look for them when I am at the book store. I find his adult conspiracy very cute.

No...it wasn't "Crewel Lye" It was either the second or the third book...actually, I think it was the second one. And I STILL can't remember it.
I also like how main characters never die, but just "fade out"

I have enjoyed reading Piers Anthony's work for years. Now my 14 year old reads them...it's cool when your children like the same books you do

 

[Dracil]

Oh man, I love Piers Anthony's books! Xanth is favorite, also like the Incarnations of Immortality, and the Blue Adept series, and perhaps some more! Good thing my middle school/high school library had a ton of his books!

 

[The-Doctor]

I read all the INcarnations books...very clever and great stories... not read the other stuff

 

[Bohemian]

I'm presently reading the Quest for Magic. Very good stuff!

 

[Myah]

I gave my sister the first Xanth booth for her thirteenth birthday. Now she is a rabid Piers Anthony Fan. *Must spread the Piers Faith* *cackles*

 

[Bohemian]

Yeah, a spell for chamelion is a great book.

 

[Thithy]

I just love Piers Anthony. Great stuff. Read several of the Xanth books, Hasan, and I'm reading the Mode series. Love it all. My dad got me hooked. He gave me Dragon on a Pedistal when I was a little girl, maybe 6 years old, thought I would like it because it's about a little girl. Didn't really understand it, but I know I finished it. I just love how everyone has a different talent. I think the book you were thinking about was Castle Roogna, but that's not where Dor goes through the tapestry it's his father (can't remember the name right now, going to hurt myself when I actually remember). When the huge spider (Jumper I believe) went with him. Great stuff, I love it. Dangit all, I feel really stupid for not being able to remember. Oh yes I remember now! Bink. OK, now I don't feel as bad.

 

[TrueQ]

Was it Bink? I thought it was Dor and he swapped bodies with a barbarian or something.

I've only read the Xanth series. My favorite bits are the demon games when they meet (X/A)^nth and all those other ones with the mathemetic expressions.

 

[The-Doctor]

Oh yes Piers Anthony Incarnations of imortality got to be the best books I have read in awhile....I like the one on Death ...how does Death do his/her job?
Great stories

 

[LadyDJ]

I read most of the Xanth series at one point, but lost track of it after awhile. I remember reading the Blue Adept...but my favorite series is the Incarnations of Immortality.

 

[Pseud]

I like him lots. I've read the incarnations of immortality series, and I picked up book one again from the bookshop but haven't started reading it yet.

I started off reading him with the bio of a space tyrant series, about Hope Hubris. Those were some cool books. Then I moved onto the adept series, and that's all I've read so far!
