Piers Anthony

Piers Anthony — 16 titles in the rankings, first published between 1977 and 1990. They average 7.7, below the 7.8 the whole catalogue averages. 4 of the series have a reading order worth keeping to.

Editor’s note Two very different series. Xanth, a pun-filled comic fantasy that runs to dozens of books, starts with A Spell for Chameleon, the most read but the lowest rated; many readers today also find its treatment of women dated. Incarnations of Immortality, in which ordinary people take over the offices of Death, Time, Fate, War and others, starts with On a Pale Horse and rates higher, with For Love of Evil at the top.
