Great conclusion to the series I like how his fantasy doesn't get as wordy as a Tolkein book. both excellent writers in their own sense but this book was just right for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you ever read one book...make it this one!, January 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Juxtaposition (Apprentice Adept) (Mass Market Paperback)

This by far is the greatest book by Piers Anthony I have ever read. I read most of the book in school and stopped about half way through chapter Xanadu for about 3 months. When I started to read it again I was so hooked on the events and action unfolding that I read the rest of the book the same day. If you ever read one book in your lifetime, make it this one. Juxtaposition was such a good book, and had the best ending I've seen anywhere, that I found myself wishing that one day I would fall asleep and wake up in this very world that I had read about.I just wish that Mr. Anthony would have continued the series with Stile still shifting between worlds seeing Sheen to further develope their relationship. With all things considered this is the best book I've ever read. I hope Piers Anthony never stops writing.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Worthwhile read, January 13, 2006

I picked up this book before the rest of the series for a reading report in High School. I instantly fell in love with the thought of corresponding frames and wished to read the rest of the series. Unfortunatly, for me the excitment went downhill from there. I will always consider this book the best of the series and recomend it to anyone who loves fantasy writings.
