Andy P reviewed Just My Type: A Book About Fonts by Simon Garfield

Great if you like fonts

No rating

A wonderful exploration of fonts. Each chapter is printed IN the font used- so make sure that you get it in print.

Andy P reviewed Geis of the Gargoyle (Xanth) by Piers Anthony (Xanth (18))

Piers Anthony: Geis of the Gargoyle (Xanth) (Paperback, 1995, Tor Fantasy)

Review of 'Geis of the Gargoyle (Xanth)' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

A bit of a interesting story line that provides some insight into the history of Xanth. I enjoyed the story but would say that this one - like many of the others within the later parts of the Xanth series the story wasn't as well thought out as some of the first few books in the series. Even still it was an amusing read.
