This was my favorite of the Xanth books, mostly because of the relationship between Dor and Jumper (the spider which was accidentally sucked into the tapestry with Dor). I mostly remember the quest Dor goes on to find a potion of restoration for a zombie, while fighting for his feelings for Millie (his nanny in the present and the woman he's protecting in the past), whose "talent" is magical sex appeal.Not worth delving into the sorrid land of Xanth for this one novel, either. Plus, given the rest of the series, I suspect there are a number of sexual references that I've forgotten, something that should not be in stories marketted for young teenage boys.
