5.0 out of 5 stars The first books of Piers Anthony's renowned Xanth Series, August 20, 1996
By A Customer
This review is from: Three Complete Xanth Novels: A Spell for Chameleon; The Source of Magic; Castle Roogna (Hardcover)

Containing the trilogy that started the well-known series,
this book introduces the reader to the magical world of
Xanth.

Xanth is a peninsula (with a remarkable resemblance to
Florida) where magic exists and anything is possible. It
is surrounded by the "Curtain," a magical barrier that
instantly kills anything touching it. Outside the Curtain,
Xanth is surrounded by the magic-less land of "Mundania."
With this setting with unlimited possibilities, Piers
Anthony has created a masterpiece.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best of the series, July 28, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Three Complete Xanth Novels: A Spell for Chameleon; The Source of Magic; Castle Roogna (Hardcover)
The first three books of the Xanth series are the best of the hideously sprawling series. The characters are more fully realized and the atmosphere is not so cheekily sexist. The puns actually add to the stories, instead of dragging the readers along to the big blinking neon sign PUN! PUN! PUN! Bink and Chameleon are probably the best characters Anthony has written, because they are adults and have some rather serious relationship problems. To put it bluntly, this was the only volume of my Xanth collection that I bothered to save when my bedroom was flooded

5.0 out of 5 stars Piers Anthony at his finest!, December 5, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Three Complete Xanth Novels: A Spell for Chameleon; The Source of Magic; Castle Roogna (Hardcover)
These three books make for an excellent trilogy, thick with a rich writing style, imaginative prose, and surprising depth for a "lightweight" fantasy series. I cannot imagine the fantasy genre without these. Piers Anthony has opened up a whole new route of writing fantasy. You'll be won over by Xanth's charm instantly. Excellent.
