This came up in another forum (specifically in reference to the Xanth series) but the analogy I came up with for it tickles my funny bone so I thought I'd share it here too:
Piers Anthony's writing is like that hottie who seems perfect and you can't believe they're interested in you... except after four or five dates you realize they're incredibly stupid and just keep parroting the same practiced conversations over again with different wording, and you're starting to suspect they're actually involved with some kind of freaky cult, and possibly into kinks outside your comfort level. Sure those first few dates are great, but...
edit: To be clear, I cast no aspersions whatsoever on Mr. Anthony himself with regard to intelligence or personal habits, and he's openly an atheist-leaning agnostic so no cults either. It's just a metaphor.
