I didn't get the feeling that the original book suffered from an aggressive editor. Rather, the Xanth books changed over time, with heavy use of wordplay. So he reworked the original to make it fit the overall style more.
Given that the first four or so are pretty fun and after that they quickly became repetitive dreck, I went with the original version.
