I never got into him, but knew people that loved his work. Not just the Xanth stuff either. I remember a story on This American Life about a kid that ran away from home, thinking he could live with Piers.

I think the first 4 or so Xanth books still hold up as an adult reading them. That was before he was basing stories on the silly puns that readers were sending him. I also enjoyed the Split Infinity series as a teen but I haven't read them since. His books rarely go on sale, or if they do it's the same ones every time.
