Geis of the Gargoyle (Xanth, Bk 18)
reviewed on + 14 more book reviews


I'll be honest, I love the Xanth series, but this is where the series jumped the shark for me. It's not a bad book, and not the worst in the series by any means, but it seems like the sole purpose of this book was to "explain" the continuity errors in the previous novels, and the plot gets bogged down in explanations that, honestly, are hard to follow. There are some good novels that follow this one, like "Yon Ill Wind" and "The Dastard," but this is the first Xanth novel that I really did not enjoy reading.
