Five Portaits picks up where Board Stiff, Xanth #38, leaves of. We follow the same lovable characters as they adventure together through the lands of Xanth and Mundania along the way saving five children and deepening their bond of unlikely friendship. Piers Anthony's acclaimed and loved puns are alive and well in Five Portraits, the 39th title in the long running Xanth series. In fact part of the adventure involves a fight to keep puns safe in Xanth! Whether you've read all or none of the Xanth series, this tale of adventure and friendship has an enduring message of selfless effort and the power of unlikely friendship. Not just Xanth, but Mundania too, would be better if there were more such friendships. Piers Anthony has called this book one of his favorites within the series.
