Summary of this Book... | ||
The nightmare Imbrie was turned into a day mare many years ago, and given a position of honor for her efforts in defeating the evil Horseman. Now she's starting to yearn for greener pastures, and sets off to find them. On the other side of Xanth, a lone fawn learns of his neighboring tree's dilemma. It has lost its fawn and needs a new spirit so that it does not dwindle away and become mundane.

Further Comments... | ||
While there is an underlying romantic twist to this book, it is mostly adventure as Faun and Imbrie wander the worlds, so you won't have to worry about all that mushy stuff. However, on first reading a Xanth novel most people have one of two reactions. They either love it or hate it. The puns are not watered down, they are the life and flavor of Xanth and work perfectly for those who enjoy that sort of humar. It's a short read, so you won't have long to figure out if you enjoy it. | ||
