5.0 out of 5 stars A high flying adventure!, Jul 16 2004
Prince Dor has been left in charge while King Trent and Queen Iris go on a trade mission to the mysterious land of mundania.

However, something goes wrong. Trent and Iris do not return when they are suppose to and Dor is left with an upset daughter (Prinsess Irene) and the Xanth elders who all know Dor is not ready to be king.

Going against the Elders wishes Dor and Irene set off in search of Trent with an unusual magition, a half ogre, a living doll, and a pouch of magical spells, including one cursed jar of salve that makes for an interesting twist.

This adventure takes place in Xanth, Mundania present, Mundania past, and the boarder lines between Xanth and Mundania, high in the air to far beneath the ground.

Xanth lovers will relish the new and interesting puns, while newer readers will find the adventure fun and amazing at times. A must read for any interested in Xanth.

5.0 out of 5 stars best Xanth book out there, Jun 3 2004
this has to be by far the best Xanth book that i have read. It has everything that you could want out of a book, adventure, suspense, and magic. Piers Anthony is by far the best Fantasy author out there and reading this book has proven that to me. i love his books and can't put them down. i read them as fast as i can so that i can go on to the next one.

4.0 out of 5 stars Dastardly deeds for all!!, Feb 22 2004
By Hannah Grant "hypoelectron" (Michigan, United States) - See all my reviews
This is a great work, even if you miss the origional character bink. His son Dor packs a puch and I love the reference to one of my favorite characters from the previous book Castle Ragoona.

Peirs Anthony has a good way of keeping the series going by building on previous characters and their families.
I hope to find out what happens to Jewel & Crombie's daughter in the next book,Ogre-Ogre.

Keep reading the series only gets better!
