 | | Anthony commonly states that he originally intended for Xanth to be a trilogy, and after the wild success of the first three books decided to expand the series to nine books. | | | Plants may bear fruit of all descriptions (pie trees and shoe trees are common) or they may be carnivorous (such as the tangle trees). | | | He has since declared, in the Author's Notes of Cube Route, that this 27th book ended the first "trilogy" and that he was beginning a new one with the 28th, punning on the fact that 27 is the third power of three, i.e. |

| | In the magical tapestry that depicts all Xanth history in tiny moving images, such liaisons are misted out to prevent the breaching of the Conspiracy by inquiring children. | | | The guide also summarizes Xanth history and provides sleek, comic-book style illustrations of all the major characters, with special attention devoted to bare-chested creatures like centaurs, merfolk, naga and fairies. | | | This is not to say he's Dickens, but that the moral universe of Xanth is fairly complex, and his books warrant rereading because I discover new stuff to ponder each time. |

| | Anthony's entertaining, if somewhat uneven, 29th Xanth book (after 2004's Currant Events) follows the polite, generous and even-tempered Goody Goblin-an anomaly among males of his race, who are usually crass, unkind and violent-as Goody tours Xanth on a quest to dispose of a foul-mouthed bird known as the "Pet Peeve," which can mimic anyone's speech. | | | Accompanied by the tough Hannah Barbarian, one of Anthony's most completely realized female characters, Goody passes through many parts and meets many people of Xanth, none of whom is willing to take the dangerously annoying bird off his hands. | | | This time the most ungoblinlike (he's nice) Goody Goblin has to find a home for the Pet Peeve, a talking bird that speaks only insults. |

| | Others will find it downright silly or even puerile, especially since the rule book is also heavy on daft wordplay. | | | Personally, having read three and half of the twelve or more book 'trilogy' years ago (they get progressively worse as the volumes roll out), I am familiar enough with the background and found playing Xanth a gentle if occasionally grating diversion, but one I would not like to repeat very often. | | | The good bits are that the land of Xanth is weird if you actually want to move around in it and each of its inhabitants, including your characters, have a unique magical talent. |

These talents can range form making spots on walls, to changing forms, to making good gruel! | | | I think there are 25 that exist, but I can't remember them all. |
