Picked up my first Piers Anthony book today when browsing around the Queen Victoria Markets in Melbourne. Looking forward to getting stuck in to this while on my flight home tonight

im not one to yuck your yum but dude writes pedo normalization stories. I don’t read him anymore.

But it’s this book or OP has nothing to read for the flight. That’s a tough choice, and I know I’m settling on pedo normalization, but I’m not gonna be happy about it.
So, like, does he ever improve as a person and stop writing stuff like that, or are his most recent books just as bad? Asking for a friend who used to read him as a kid
i don’t know. i didn’t consider having another read. im not gonna ever think a sick fuck like him is gonna improve. i don’t even know or care if he’s alive.
I really wish there was a series like xanth with the puns and zany world-building, but none of the gross stuff :/
ngl, read Terry Pratchett. problem solved. seriously. much better even.
I like his books too, but they are less zany somehow
