Anthony, Piers A Spell for Chameleon
Del Rey March 12, 1987 0-345-34753-6 / 9780345347534 Paperback Very Good
Xanth was the enchanted land where magic ruled--where every citizen had a s pecial spell only he could cast. That is, except for Bink of North Village. He was sure he possessed no magic, and knew that if he didn't find some so on, he would be exiled. According to the Good Magician Humpfrey, the charts said that Bink was as powerful as the King or even the Evil Magician Trent . Unfortunately, no one could determine its form. Meanwhile, Bink was in de spair. If he didn't find his magic soon, he would be forced to leave....

Anthony, Piers And Eternity
Eos February 1, 199 0-380-75286-7 / 9780380752867 Paperback Very Good
With this seventh book Anthony concludes his series called the Incarnations of Immortality. Previous works have focused on Death, Time, Fate, War, Ear th, Evil; the subject here is the Incarnation of Good, and the setting is a n alternate Earth where Magic and Science share power. Each of the offices of these Incarnations must be filled by a human who will not age while occu pying the position. Following the theme of the series, this book is concern ed with the transition to a new Incarnation of Good. Each Incarnation has d ifferent rules for change, and that of Good requires the agreement of all s ix other Incarnations, including Evil, a decided complication that the othe r five must deal with. Anthony's excellent prose and well-thought-out plott ing deliver an enjoyable and logical surprise solution to the conflict, fol lowing the resolution of Luna Kaftan's critical vote (a subplot of the enti re series).

Anthony, Piers Demons Don't Dream
Tor Books February 15, 19 0-8125-3483-2 / 9780812534832 Paperback Very Good
This latest and weakest Xanth fantasy (after The Color of Her Panties ) sta rts off in Mundania, the series's term for the world in which the readers l ive. Playing the new fantasy/adventure computer game Companions of Xanth, t eenagers Dug and Kim select companions from among the characters of Xanth, Dug choosing a sultry half-woman/half serpent and Kim a young Elven girl. S oon Dug and Kim find they have entered the actual Land of Xanth. Unknown to them, the demons that provide Xanth's magic are in mystic competition, usi ng Kim, Dug and their companions as pawns. Written in a simplistic style, t he novel marks the continued decline of this once-diverting series. The tee nage characters are all but lifeless, while the story line, remarkably simi lar to that of Anthony's recent novel Killobyte , lacks not just tension bu t consequence. However, the legions of Xanth readers can rest assured that the book contains plenty of the punningly named animals, vegetables, people and things (such as the Ice Queen Crone and the Censor-Ship) that have bec ome the series' raison d'etre.
