4.0 out of 5 stars Intergalactic Dentistry brought right to your bookshelf..., August 23, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Prostho Plus (Mass Market Paperback)

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.

5.0 out of 5 stars The book that turned me on to Piers Anthony, August 24, 2001

This review is from: Prostho Plus (Mass Market Paperback)

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.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great flair for exposition makes this a fun read for anyone., June 10, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Prostho Plus (Mass Market Paperback)

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
