Piers Anthony books seem to be completely random with regards to quality. I've read at least one book of his (though I've completely forgotten the title) which had less engaging writing than Watch Your Brain does. And Xanth has gone completely unreadable even if you are 13, unless you don't mind reading books made entirely out of reader-submitted puns. Somewhere in between there and the first Xanth books (which were just sort of boring), he did manage to produce a few that I still think are actually good. The only example I can think of immediately is Castle Roogna, though.
