A good read. I only wish the ending would have been more complete.

I read this to see if Xanth holds up from when I was a kid, and it really doesn't. This golem may be small but it sure is full of misogyny. I had a memory Xanth was the straightest fantasy world I've ever read, and this is still true. Also, the gears show up once on one page, which is even more disappointing.

The problem started from the beginning. The plot was too weak, but this seems to happen in some of the Xanth novels.

Grundy the Golem doesn't seem to get respect and to earn it he goes to search for the long lost dragon. But how bis that going to earn him respect when throughout his travels he really isn't to friendly with anyone and tends to insult many of his travelers. Bleh.

This was an all around average book in the Xanth series. Nothing incredibly funny, but nothing incredibly bad either. Just an all around decent adventure.
