Enter the fabulous, wonder-filled
Land of Xanth


Gloha is the only creature of her kind in all the world of Xanth, the beautiful offspring of a chance mating between a harpy and a goblin.  As she grew to womanhood, she wondered where she would find the one true love with whom she could share her life.

So, naturally, she sets off to find the Good Magician Humphrey to ask him for an Answer to the riddle of her heart's desire.  But Humphrey, for mysterious reasons of his own, propels her instead on a perilous quest in search of truth, friendship, and, just possibly, happiness.

"Fans of the author's trademark humor will relish [Harpy Thyme], the latest jount through the wacky world of Xanth; new readers too will enjoy the fun."
- Publishers Weekly

"Harpy Thyme is another of Piers Anthony's frothy and delightfully frivolous fantasy novels about the land of Xanth, where puns and playfulness reign supreme."
- The Toronto Star

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
