The Xanth books by Piers Anthony were one of the first SciFi/Fantasy series I ever read. I love puns so I have always enjoyed them. Upon re-reading them I can see that they have some weaknesses but overall they stand the test of time. They are a fun and fast read that keeps me amused without any deep thinking required. (

It's been years since I've read a Xanth novel, so it was fun to go back to a world visited in my youth and groan over the use of some silly puns. Cute story about an 80 year old Mundane, Bryce, who lands in Xanth as part of a Demon quest for the hand of Princess Harmony. Silly, but pleasant read. (
