"I'm actually a smart girl who would make any man an excellent wife. But no man sees that. No man is interested in my mind or personality, just my whatevers. So here is my wish: I'm board stiff. I want Adventure, Excitement, and Romance." So begins Piers Anthony's 38th Xanth novel, in which Irrelevant Candy looks at her reflection in the water of the shallow well and sees luxuriant midnight-black hair reaching down to her breathtakingly slender waist, matching the dark eyes in her lovely face.

The book is great...the audio not so much
Revisado: 08-03-20
Piers Anthony's Xanth series is well known for humor and obscure funny refeences to those "who know". Board Stiff is both laugh out loud funny and an occasional "groaner" as he plays with words and imagery. Sadly, the audio fails the book...it's as if the person reading the book has no understanding of the English language. Many of the funniest parts are delivered completely flat, and the "dialog tags" (i.e. "he said", "she muttered", "they explained") were spoken in such "broken" English as to actually detract from the story. His Canadian accent was obvious in the first 2 minutes, and it should have enhanced the book...but the delivery was void of any of the hallmarks of good theater, with very little attempt at consistent (or even interesting) vocal characterization. I hate to say it, but it's almost as if the reader was himself "Bored Stiff".
