SynopsisEnter the world of Xanth, where every citizen has their own unique talent or magical ability and centaurs, demons and dragons abound. Kandy is lovely but lonely. She wishes for adventure and romance and gets them but only after being transformed into a stiff board. She's not thrilled but carries on and winds up okay. Along the way, she and her friends work to save Xanth from the dreaded pun destroying virus, so that Xanth will not become as dreary as Mundania., "I'm actually a smart girl who would make any man an excellent wife. But no man sees that. No man is interested in my mind or personality, just my whatevers. So here is my wish: I'm board stiff. I want Adventure, Excitement, and Romance."So begins Piers Anthony's 38th Xanth novel, in which Irrelevant Candy, looks at her reflection in the water of the shallow well and sees luxuriant midnight black hair to her breathtakingly slender waist, matching dark eyes in a lovely face. A torso coming yea-close to absolute perfection. She was man's desire. That was part of the problem.And in the shallow magic of a wishing well, she asks her wish to be granted. Something happens. A sudden whirlwind surrounds her, lifting her up and ripping off her clothing. She is changing, somehow. Then she falls flat on the ground.Literally. She has been transformed into a flat, stiff board with two knotholes for eyes., I'm actually a smart girl who would make any man an excellent wife. But no man sees that.

Love this book!
In typical Piers Anthony fashion, this one did not disappoint! The Xanth series are such a fun series. Having read the first 10-12 books in the series about 30 years ago, and decided to reread, I was surprised that the series had expanded so much. This is the 38th book and they continue to intrigue me and keep my interest!!
