Piers Anthony is definitely a writer who deserves praise. Almost everything in his books is logical unto itself. He gives rational backgrounds for everything from Nacre mantas to Mintakan sex. If anyone wants to know what to look for here are some of his works: The manta series Omnivore Orn OX The Cluster series Cluster Chaining of the Lady Kirlian Quest Thousandstar Viscous Circle The Tarot series (an offshoot of the Cluster series) Planet of Tarot God of Tarot Faith of Tarot (I am probably wrong on the titles and order of the Tarot series.) The Chton series Chton Pthor Mute Macroscope Battle Circle Rings of Ice and the already mentioned Xanth and Phaze/Proton series. Does anyone recall another P.A. book by the name of Hasan or Hassan? I remember seeing it but I haven't been able to find it again. Also are there any other Piers Anthony books that haven't been mentioned? Lastly, if you like Anthony then you'll probably enjoy Jack Chalker. His Well World series and the Warden Diamond series are very good just to mention a couple of his works. BGB
