The Letter So Far:

Dear Mr. Anthony,
      "I wanted to add my thanks, as your addictive witty land have provided me with endless hours of enjoyment as well as helping me to consider ideas and change a few things in my life I would not have otherwise considered or done. As a blind reader I am particularly greatful for your outstanding descriptions, as they paint the scenes of Xanth in my mind. I always feel like its a homecoming when I read a new Xanth book, thank you for creating such a captivating beloved world." writes Orrelius, remembering a favorite book.

Rocn_robyn writes these words, "Thank you so much for many, many hours of fun. I have read all the Xanth novels 3 times. My son hated reading, but had to do it during the summer holidays. I gave him a Xanth book and now he has read all of them and in the process learned the joy of reading. My world would be poorer without your imagination!"

      "I started reading your books in the eighth grade when I happened upon Centaur Isle in my classroom, and since then I've been hooked. Thank you for creating this brilliant and original series, though I do have a few grumbles about the way vampires are represented in Castle Roogna. Your work is incredibly imaginative and there are almost no continuity errors." writes Jewel.

Remembering time spent reading about Xanth, Sat(u/r)n writes, "I have been reading your novels for over a decade, being first introduced by a friend who had Castle Roogna on their windowsil, which I stole from them. I was entranced by your writing: how vividly you could describe something so amazing and bring life to imaginary people and situations. Everything seemed to make sense and have a proper fit within its own span of time. Since that first novel, I have strove to find and collect as many of your publications as possible, including all the Xanth series, the Incarnation series, and Adept series, as well as being a very proud owner of your Bio. Though I never pursued being a writer(much to my own dismay), your writing inspried me all through my life, in all forms of my own writing. For that, I am eternally grateful to you, sir."

      "I've recently started reading your books and now im addicted. A couple days ago i went on ebay to find some of your books but i cant find the whole xanth series which makes me mad...but untill ifind it ill have to keep borrowing them from lie-berries all over new york.
keep writing-cuz ur good at it!!! =) =P (=" writes Gwendolynn, remembering a favorite book.

Nataru writes these words, "When I was younger, probably close to eight years old, my dad was reading one of your novels and I was curious, so I read it after him. That book was Harpy Thyme. Ever since then, I have been reading your books and I love them. I would find myself laughing in class during some of the books and of course people wanted to know what was so funny! Your books got me through some tough times, just in growing up and I still love them. I have re-read many, but am still working on reading, and owning, them all. Thank you."

      "I really love the Xanth books. When my father convinced me to start reading them I was a bit annoyed but now I'm totally stuck. I've gotten to know the land and the characters so good through the books that it almost feels like coming home when I start reading a new one. You rule in making books!!!!" writes Clio.

Remembering time spent reading about Xanth, Jenny writes, "(write your thanks here)i'd just like to thank you for so many fun, and exciting novels, i've read all your books and look forward to reading more of them. i reside in the small town of havana, florida, and its nice to getaway in a good fantasy. i imagine that i'm actually there when i'm reading. demetria is my favorite character from the series, i think of myself as a sexy demon."

      "Dear Mr. Anthony. I often day dream about sending you a letter, but by reading your author's notes in the Incarnations of Immortality, I felt it would be rude of me to bother you. Well, now I can finally tell you all that I wanted. You are my favorite author, the first book series I ever completed was Incarnations of Immortality. I am now working my way through the Xanth series, just to see what all the fuss was about. Well, I must thank you,Incarnations has gotten me mostly through high school, considering I read a few of them each year, finishing the last yesterday. Your books are also getting me through my grandma being in the hospital. You see, she had an anerism(pardon my spelling if it s wrong) and is very lucky to be alive. Once again, thank you so much for the gifts you have given me and the rest of your readers, you keep writing them, I'll keep reading them even after you are done.
-Andrew Bailey, March 15" writes Andrew, remembering a favorite book.

writes these words, "Tamara a thanks for giving hope...:)"

      "Dear Piers Anthony,

God, do I love your books! I'm a bit annoyed because I read A Spell
For Chameleon and Source of Magic, plus Castle Roogna by using the
advantages of my mom's and dad's bookstore! But I saw Centaur Isle and
didn't grab it before it got sold (or maybe it's just hidden away in storage
while we close for the winter) but anyways I regret it so much! I can't
find another copy anywhere! I just skipped to the next Xanth book I
could find and continued on in the 'teens! I loved all your books and the
puns in them! Although I'm off on vacation for six months and I've
forgotten the exact titles, I repeatedly reread and read again A Spell For
Chameleon!

My dad used to call me Binky after the name Bink (he's still my
favorite character) but I hadn't even known your books existed then. Then I
discovered A Spell For Chameleon and found "Bink" and got hooked on
your books. Like most other things, he thought I would not grow up to like
them and sold all your books, and I wish he hadn't! Now I'm on a
three-year hunt for Centaur Isle and can't wait until I can get my hands on
your next book!" writes bkat~Kyrvin.

Remembering time spent reading about Xanth, Laugha_bull writes, "When I was 9, I was diagnosed with cancer and while I was in the hospital, I got some books from a nurse. The first 4 of your books were included, and ever since then, I've been hooked! I love all of the puns and sometimes think for hours on end for ones that I can use. XANTH BOOKS RULE!"

      "Oh man...When I was a kid and read the Xanth novels, my family decided to visit our relatives in Florida...I spent that ENTIRE vacation attempting to hunt down both Piers AND Xanth. Many a phone directory was slaughtered during that vacation. I also have incredible memories of Through The Ice (My first favorite book), and Total Recall. Piers, thank you." writes Evan (-E!), remembering a favorite book.

Robster639 writes these words, "At first, i was just reading the first xanth book cause i was waiting for another book series to come out with the next book and i needed another few books to read. After i read the first one, i searched to see if you had a second. After reading the third one, I looked around the web to see how many you had written, and then i realized your 27th book had just come out. I made myself a promise i would finish all of them by the end of that school year. I drove my family crazy dragging them out to the book store but i did it. Soon afterward your 28th book came out and i was soooooo happy. Keep writing the xanth books please. their absolutely amazing. I don't think i've ever read the other book i was waiting for in the beginning, and i know it would never compare to your books. I'm always seeing things in the mundane world that remind me of xanth and all of your puns. keep up the good work and thank you for making the mundane world a little less mundane."

      "Thank you, Peirs. I have enjoyed all your Xanth books that I have read, which is everything up to Harpy Thyme. I'll catch up to you sooner or later. You truly are one of the best writers out there. Well, I'm off to read Geis of The Gargoyle now!" writes Kirsybuu.

Xanth is place I dreamed of living. Thank you for making each person and their talent individual and original. Thank you for Xanth"

      "In 1988 a coworker introduced me to a spell for a woman, both pretty and ugly. Actually it was your first Xanth novel. Oddly the spell worked on me, a man. I've been compelled since that day to read all your Xanth novels. Even when the spell was abolished during the time of no magic I was unaware and kept reading to this day (with breaks of course). Keep up the magic." writes Warbard aka David, remembering a favorite book.

Steven writes these words, "My mother bought me the first three books as a hardbound anthology, and my best friend bought me the second three also as a hardbound anthology... I've been hooked ever since!"

One day i picked faun and games up and it was great, I read all the books she had on the shelf after that. When i finished those I began reading everything. Then one day I was taking a stroll in a book store and I saw in bg letters Xanth! And i rememebred my love for these books, i have all the books now in my mini library, so I would like to say thank you for re awakening my love for reading all books, especially inviting us to your world of Xanth! Thanks Man!" writes Mar-iha.

Remembering time spent reading about Xanth, Kelsie_human writes, "Much much thanks from me. One day a few years ago (was it really 6?)

Now I'm hooked and own the first 17 books! ^_^ If I had to go too a deserted (desserted :-P) island and could only bring one book series, it would be Xanth, no question. Thank you!"

--jesspark" writes jesspark.

Remembering time spent reading about Xanth, Trust writes, "Mr. Anthony, I come before you with a humble heart, thanking you for years of entertainment by your words. It's because you wrote so many enthralling stories that I began reading a new novel every week. I head to the local library daily, as there are no bookstores within a 40 mile radius, and look for any of your books that I have not read, and I'm proud to say I haven't found any. Thank you for all of your hard work, and I sincerely hope to read the same stories to my own children one day."

They are my life at school, I've nearly exhausted the library's supplies of books, and I even made up a new word in favour of Xanth - Puntastic. Instead of reading other, tiny little short midget books, I read Xanth. On the weekends, I sit in my chair next to my computer and I read. I'm twelve years old, in grade 7, and I don't think I'd survive without the puntastic punny world of Xanth by my side. Thank you SO much for making these books, all of us love them, and I will read them all until I attend the fade-out party."

      "The first ever xanth book i got was "Zombie Lover" in an old antique bookshop. It was worn n used , until now i just dont know what made me bought it. It might have been the synopsis or the interesting book cover..who knows, But,i'll never regret it in my lasting life. That was the book that sent me hunting for more of Piers Anthony books like The Apprentice Adapt, Incarnations of Immortality Series and so many more.The books took me to a world full of fantasy and unbelievable things , and advanture i've never before dreamed off.. I used to think that fantasy books were a waste of time and only suitable for kids...That's what got me to opened my mind towards fantasy books..It's actually a challenge on how far your mind uses imagination.. And since then,i have learned never to shunned down any fantasy book...And Mr Piers Anthony, i thank you for writing such wonderfull,exciting books...i'm just speechless... The rest off the fans who post out their thank you notes are way far better than me in showing their appreciation... I would just like to add to the fans that..it's not true that our world is like dreaded Mundania.. If you look really carefully..you will find Xanth starring right infront of you.. Its people and authors like Mr Piers Anthony who frequently remind us of that particular place that everyone's able to visit and see...

The first full-length book I ever read was Demons Don't Dream (I received it with the Companions of Xanth), and I remember reading it at the doctor's office when I was 8, and making friends with the lady who worked at the counter, AND the doctor herself. Obviously, I can appreciate the humour of the books more now, but your Xanth series was what actually hooked me on the fantasy genre itself. Thank you for providing the world with a beautiful, funny, charming place we all hope to visit someday."

They helped me get out of the boredom of the hospital room, and into a land where things actaully turned out good for good people. Thankfully I am now a survivor of cancer, and off to Hillsdale College. Now I wish I had more free time to read Xanth, and immerse myself in that world, I have only been able to read three of them since I got here, but they help the stress of college.

Had I known all this time that those ubiquitous Piers Anthony books I always see in the bookstore was the source of all that wonderful madness - well, perhaps my life would be different today. As it is, I have no doubt that this early influence on my mental development planted the seeds for my current Douglas Adams fandom. Ahem. Anyway, I'll be sure to read some of yourn books as soon as I get a chance, but for now I'm off to download that game. I'm feeling rather nostalgic... I'm pretty sure I remember how to play...

Askain writes these words, "I've always loved the books, right from the first page of A Spell for Chameleon all the way to Cube Route(which I might add that we were learning about cube routes in geometry class the day after I got done reading it...thanks for helping me get ahead in geometry). I've really learned alot from your books, even though I think the main point is a cross between comedy, fantasy, and pleasure. For instance I didn't know what the word 'pun' was until I read your books...not to mention random geometry terms. If I had written this to you a while back I would remember my list of puns and such...but as of now I cann't remember any. I do remember my talent idea of having somebody touch a person to make them deaf or able to hear again, and the same thing with blindness also. Anyway...that doesn't matter. Thank you for all of your hard work, from the seventies till now. Your the best."

      "I love the world of Xanth that you created. I stumbled across your first book, and after I finished it I was glad to later find out that it was a series versus a single book. I'm grabbing as many as I can :D Thanks for a great series and a great escape." writes Lemuel.

Remembering time spent reading about Xanth, Khyy writes, "I honestly didn't think I liked the Xanth series when I first started reading because it is so unlike any other fantasy book I've ever read. I just finished book 4 and am moving along at about the pace of a new book every 2-3 days. (I do stuff in between too!) I must say, Xanth is a world I've come to love, and Mundania seems so boring now that I mention it. I thank you for your awesome talents and unlimited imagination. I'm sorry to admit, but The Magic of Xanth has become my favorite book series (overriding my original obssession of The Dark Tower series by Stephen King.) Don't quit writing! I would be very disappointed and upset if I learned that Pet Peeve is the last book. 29 just simply isn't enough!"

      "Hello I just wanted to let you know that I am delighted that you decided to continue making books.

" writes autumn.

Remembering time spent reading about Xanth, Chris writes, "Thank you Piers Anthony for every thing, I wouldn't be who I am today if it wasn't for your series.

From the very first adventure with Bink, to the introduction of mundanes to Xanth, your series has captured the hearts and minds of many readers(including mine), and is bound to capture many more.

The first book I ever read of yours was 'A Spell for Chameleon', and I have to say that reading your work changed my life. I know that sounds rather dramatic of me, but its true. Your novels opened a part of my imagination that I can never close again. Ever since I started that first novel, which I might add, I only started reading because my seventh grade language teacher threatened to fail me if I didn't actually read the book I was reporting on, I haven't been able to stop my mind from spinning with tales and lands of my own. I next to own my personal library now, all of the Xanth and your various other series included of course, and am happy to be slowly but surely working on my own novels at the moment. I'm up to three now, all a work in progress sad to say, but one day my mind will be in print too, and I can owe many of my thanks to you. Thank you." writes Audrey.

Very few other authors would be able to get me from being a lazy girl to the second highest grades in the school. Thank you so very, very muchly."

Thank you for making our lives brighter." writes Lelia.

Remembering time spent reading about Xanth, John writes, "Mr. Anthony, I have utilized your books to help my children learn to enjoy reading. My oldest son, now deceased, hated to read. I introduced him to the Xanth series. He got off to a slow start but he got interested and then started to use his own money to get the list of books current. My daughter used to think that all reading was boring. I used your books and the memory of her brother to motivate her into reading as a valid way to spend idle moments. She too contributed her own funds to keep the collection current and to replace some of the volumes that were worn out. I am very thankful to you for writing the Xanth series. I feel that your books should be used in schools to help other children to learn to enjoy reading and to help them build active imaginations. I too have enjoyed reading your various series of books. I started reading them when I was about 15 years old. I am in my 40's now and I still pick them up to read agina and again."

Tanis writes these words, "I discovered your books during the summer after seventh grade. I was at a neighbor?s house and looking through her books and one of them was A Spell for Chameleon. After taking it home and reading it, I was already hooked onto the Xanth novels. I have not read any other books that have action that flows so smoothly, or such well-written humor. I have also read the Apprentice Adept novels, and am halfway through the Incarnations of Immortality as I type this, and it is a year after my discovery of your books. I cannot wait until the movies come out. They will surely be just as entrancing and magical as your books. Never retire Piers Anthony! We all eagerly await your new novels!"

      "I was first introduced to your magical writings in 7th grade. I am now going into 11th grade and cannot stop reading. I was bored with reading before I discovered Xanth. To be truthful, I first read Mercycle for a report in the 7th grade and was very intrigued. I discussed it with a friend who told me to read A Spell For Chameleon. Nevertheless, I began reading and have been reading the series ever since. Thank you for giving me a joy in reading and thank you for not stopping writing the stories of Xanth. I cannot wait to read the next book!" writes Spunk_master_238, remembering a favorite book.
