I just managed to slog through the first Xanth book. It was readable, but it felt a little painful. I'm reading the second for kicks; it's worse. I seem to remember last time I tried this several years ago, I gave it up after the first two and Crewel Lye).

I really felt like I was reading fluff, though. Ick. But the budget is tight, so I'm trying to re-read a lot of my existing old books.
I have to admit that I have stuck to Andre Norton's Witch World series as an adult (I decided to collect the entire series, short stories included), so I'm not sure about others like The Zero Stone.

I've also heard a lot of people can't get back into Piers Anthony...I own the Incarnations of Immortality series in hb, but I've only tried read On a Pale Horse as an adult. Someone on another thread mentioned that Anthony has a panty fetish...didn't notice it as a kid thinking back now, I can see that
