Harpy Thyme Piers Anthony

It's harpy hour in the New York Times-bestselling series, as a one-of-a-kind Xanth woman searches for her happy ever after.

Though Gloha loves every inch of Xanth-from Lake Ogre-Chobee to the Ever Glades-being the only harpy-goblin cross in existence has her feeling a bit lonely. Now that she's old enough to enter into the Adult Conspiracy, she has to face reality: There are no males of her kind to mate with. Her only chance at love is to seek the help of the Good Magician, but all he has to give her is a referral . . .

Sent to find the Good Magician's second son, Trent, Gloha embarks on a journey that will take her to the most magical and mad parts of Xanth. Along the way, she'll acquire friends and foes-including demons and nymphs, a winged centaur filly, a skeleton searching for a soul, and an invisible giant. But with the help of Trent, Gloha just might discover that her quest for the ideal partner may be the biggest fantasy of all.

"Amusing . . . Fans of the author's trademark humor will relish this latest jaunt through the wacky world of Xanth; new readers too will enjoy the fun." -Publishers Weekly
