Hey Yall Listen Up | Xanth by Piers Anthony is my favorite series - Here's why (Minor Spoilers) @HeyYallListenUp | Uploaded June 2020 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
Review is spoiler free until the 3:40 mark. I'm not sure it counts as a spoiler, but I'd rather err on the side of caution.
"The Adult Conspiracy To Keep Interesting Things From Children" has forced me to age-restrict this video, because Xanth is interesting. Note: I'm not trying to imply that you are a bad parent if you let your kid read Xanth. I started when I was 13 or 14. However, this series was written for adults and contains adult material. I trust you know your kid well enough to determine if he or she can handle the material. Younger readers are of course full-fledged members of the Juvenile Conspiracy and know better than to tell their parents everything they are doing. :)

The first sixteen books are a mixture of 4 and 5 star ratings, but it has been a few years since the last time I read them and I couldn't decide where the break is. I didn't give a rating to Pet Peeve, which is 4 stars. I would love to do individual reviews on each of the books, but that would require a reread and my TBR is too long to justify that right now. Hopefully in a couple of years I will be reading more books each month and will be better at doing reviews. Then I may attempt individual reviews.
