Product Details

Product Description

Product Description

Smash, himself, was part ogre. Although ogres were considered so stupid they coud hardly speak, and spent their time eating young girls, seven assorted females had suddenly turned to him for guidance and saftety? In Xanth, one visit to the Good Magician Humfrey worked wonders....


Ingram

Even in Xanth where anything was possible through magic it seemed improbable that an ogre would be chosen to guide and save seven females even if he suddenly seems well-bred.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazingly "punny", Aug 12 2004
By Annette (Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ogre, Ogre (Paperback)
This book is what caused my addiction to Xanth novels (along with whomever I shared the book with). It combines all the characteristics of an amazing series: humor, love, friendship, action. I've read this book over three times and I still can't get enough. I recommend this and every other Xanth book to all fantasy literature enthusiasts!

4.0 out of 5 stars The Ogre's Tale, Feb 16 2004
Ogre, Ogre, is another fantasy masterpiece written by Piers Anthony in the series of Xanth. The Xanth according to the story is located south of a mundane state called Georgia, which the land of magic Xanth is actually Florida. The fifth series of the Xanth saga, the story another problem in the world of Xanth that has to be solve by a group of heroes to solve their problem, which is one of the reason I like this novel. Another reason I would rate this a four out of five is that these series would put a reader into suspense and would want a reader to continue reading this book and asking him or herself what would happen next? Furthermore, the different twist between the modern world words, ex. Catastrophe, eye-queue etc. makes this saga unique from different fantasy series. Ogre, Ogre, the seventh series of the Xanth Saga, introduces the giant sized Ogre named Smash. Smash although still talks in rhymes and looked terribly ugly, is still different from any ogres. The only difference that changes his life is that he is a vegetarian. Now Smash goes on a quest to find romance meanwhile a half nymph/human female named Tandy also goes on a quest to find someone to protect her from the evil demon. However in the end, they both wind up together in a quest to help each other. However, due to Tandyˇs knowledge about ogres, Tandy is horrified to travel with an ogre and does not trust Smash. Furthermore, as their journey continues, the ogre and the halfling then encounter more damsels in distress, similar to Tandyˇs situation. With another few damsel following with there, how will the ogre Smash and the halflingˇs problems be resolved? Well, the only way to figure out their resolution of their problem is toˇKread the book!

4.0 out of 5 stars One of my favorite Xanth books, April 11 2003
By Rosemary Lake (SF, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This is one of my favorite Xanth books. Another favorite is VALE OF THE VOLE. They remind me of Oz: nice people travelling together and coping with obstacles and odd creatures. The characters here are livelier and more interesting than in VALE.

3.0 out of 5 stars A very spirited adventure with a little touch of sexism.
After years of trying to find the very first book of the whole Xanth series, I decided on "Orge, Orge". Read more
