Synopsis
New York Times bestselling author of Zombie Lover A wild and wonderful new magical adventure that leads from Xanth to Earth - and back again A cataclysmic cloud hangs over the enchanted land of land of Xanth. Three courageous couples must venture into the O-Xone, a cybernetic interface between Xanth and our own world, to rescue the enchanted realm from destruction. A xany new fantasy xaga from the Master of Merriment, Xone of Contention is chock-filled with danger, excitement and xillions of laughs After a year filled with harrowing adventures, all Breanna of the Black Wave and her newfound love Justin Tree want is a little time to get to know each other better, and explore the wonders of the enchanted land of Xanth. But their incipient idyll is soon shattered by a stunning discovery. A climatic catastrophe is causing a massive meltdown that threatens to inundate the ancient forests of Xanth. The only way to avert this dire disaster is to undertake a voyage into the distant mists of the past, to find the moment when this ghastly greenhouse effect began. And the only people who can safely make that journey are those unaffected by Xanth's magic - normal, ordinary humans from our own world. So Breanna and Justin turn for help to the Demon X(A/N)th (a.k.a. Nimby) and his lovely consort Chlorine. Together, they devise a daring plan. Making use of the O-Xone, a magical computer network that links the worlds of Xanth and Earth, Nimby and Chlorine make contact with Pia and Edsel, a young couple from Earth who are working on a Xanth game, and arrange to exchange bodies with them. But an unexpected surprise awaits them on their arrival. The Demon Earth has challenged the Demon Xanth to a deadly duel for the highest possible stakes - dominion over both worlds. While Pia and Edsel range through the farthest reaches of time and space to save Xanth from destruction, Nimby must learn to live by the strange rules of our world, and defeat his ancient enemy without the benefit of his own awesome powers.

    Seller says book is in “Very Good” condition. Seller has NO concept of what “Very Good” infers! This book is barely “ACCEPTABLE!” I sent it as a gift and I am embarrassed. I am returning the book for a full refund! This is my last time trusting this Seller! See the pictures! A week to receive the book is terrible. Zoom in to look at pictures!

    Great second book

    If you are unfamiliar with Xanth, you'll want to read this book after you've read another Xanth novel so you can better follow along with what is happening. This novel has two Xanth characters trading places with two Mundanians. Thus creating quite an adventure! I like this book.

    series

    If you are unfamiliar with Xanth you should really start at the beginning with "A Spell for Chameleon". This book is number is 23 in the series and should be read as thus.
