Harpy Thyme (Xanth #17)
by Piers AnthonyHalf-harpy, half-goblin, Gloria is the star of Anthony's latest romp through Xanth. Being the only one of her crossbred species and at an age when the opposite sex holds some attraction, Gloria appeals to Good Magician Humphry for help in finding a mate. Of course, nothing is straightforward or easy in Xanth. First Gloria must master three challenges just to see the magician; then she has to find Humphry's second son, who will start her on her quest. Accompanied by a rejuvenated Magician Trent and Cynthia, the flying centaur, Gloria treks through the underworld and across Xanth. Along the way, the trio outwits (and out-puns) dragons, goblins, mermaids, and the like and greets old friends, including Com Pewter and Marrow Bones. Gloria is successful, but the plot is once again incidental to the ruthless punning and outright fun. After all, in Xanth, as in life, it's the journey that's important, not the destination.

Harrow: A novel
by Joy WilliamsIn her first novel since The Quick and the Dead (a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize), the legendary writer takes us into an uncertain landscape after an environmental apocalypse, a world in which only the man-made has value, but some still wish to salvage the authentic. "She practices . . . camouflage, except that instead of adapting to its environment, Williams&’s imagination, by remaining true to itself, reveals new colorations in the ecology around her.&” —A.O. Scott, The New York Times Book ReviewKhristen is a teenager who, her mother believes, was marked by greatness as a baby when she died for a moment and then came back to life. After Khristen&’s failing boarding school for gifted teens closes its doors, and she finds that her mother has disappeared, she ranges across the dead landscape and washes up at a &“resort&” on the shores of a mysterious, putrid lake the elderly residents there call &“Big Girl.&” In a rotting honeycomb of rooms, these old ones plot actions to punish corporations and people they consider culpable in the destruction of the final scraps of nature&’s beauty. What will Khristen and Jeffrey, the precocious ten-year-old boy she meets there, learn from this &“gabby seditious lot, in the worst of health but with kamikaze hearts, an army of the aged and ill, determined to refresh, through crackpot violence, a plundered earth&”? Rivetingly strange and beautiful, and delivered with Williams&’s searing, deadpan wit, Harrow is their intertwined tale of paradise lost and of their reasons—against all reasonableness—to try and recover something of it.
