Publisher's summary

"Series fans will find themselves right at home" as a computer game draws two players into the illusion-, pun-, and dragon-filled land of Xanth (Kirkus Reviews).

Sixteen-year-old Dug has yet to be impressed by a computer game, but that's before he gets hooked by Companions of Xanth-and the beguilingly beautiful princess-serpent he's chosen to guide him. Nada Naga has her work cut out for her keeping Dug's eyes on the magical prize . . . and off of her human form.

Kim is no stranger to Xanth, which is why she chooses her favorite companion, Jenny Elf, to accompany her through its marvels-and dangers. Though Kim's hyper-enthusiasm is infectious, she doesn't really believe that Xanth is real, and it's up to Jenny to prove it.

What the two players don't know is that there's more at stake than winning; the very existence of Xanth hangs in the balance. Demons may run the game, but there are voids to avoid, loan sharks to outswim, and Com Pewter-the most evil machine of all-to outwit. Not to mention that a companion may be just as willing to sabotage Dug and Kim as help them succeed . . .

Contains mature themes.

Xanth lives rent free in my brain

I love these old stories! Xanth was the first true chapter book series I ever read. I can no longer physically read books anymore so finding these was amazing. I’ve missed these characters and this land.

I will say I had forgotten how misogynistic certain aspects of the storytelling are.. in the same way like talking to a grandfather. It’s not in a malicious manner just.. Dated and not great.

The land of Xanth itself makes up for those shortcomings and I am so glad I was able to visit it again. My heart has truly missed it.

So happy I got this audio book. I forgot how much I love Xanth. And this was my favorite in the series. Definitely worth the listen. Good ol' fashion fun. 😁🤙

Meh.

His early Xanth books were really good, idk why they chose this one to be the only one they made into an audio book, it's nowhere near as good as his earlier novels. The story is pretty bland and the guy reading it is really awful. His cadence, inflection, emotional tones, etc, everything is just really weird and off the way he reads it. It's just really disappointing overall.
