[visual guide to xanth]
For those of you who have had contact with the Visual Guide to Xanth, what did you think?
I opened my copy and hastily closed it, because a lot of the illustrations made the characters look far less glamorous than my own interpretation (eg. Trent, Humphrey, Electra, etc.). Not that Humphrey is a hot hunk of gnomish flesh in my head, just that he looks different from the drawings. For the people and characters, I found myself preferring my own imagination. But pictures of the other things, like places and pillow trees and whatnot, were tolerable. What about you guys?
