Wow, not asking for alot are you!? LOL
Piers Anthony is PURE GENIUS!.

As a HUGE Xanth fan I can first reccomend his OTHER fabulous series!.

Apprentice Adept
Bio of a Space Tyrant
Battle Circle
ChroMagic series
Cluster
Geodyssey
Incarnations of Immortality
Of Man and Manta
Mode
Pornucopia

All of which have three to eight books in their series!.
My favorite being the Apprentice Adept series!.

The only other series of fantasy/science fantasy I can recomend of his quality is of course, The Lord of the Rings, the Harry Potter series!.!.!.!.!.!.!.

And Anne McCaffrey with her Dragonriders of Pern series (around 33 books in the series)!.

But I think Piers Anthony WILL keep you busy for awhile!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The Case Of The Toxic Spell Dump by Harry Turtle Dove and Leslie Fish!. Then there is Jack L!. Chalker!. If you have read both of these and this is not a wag question then would suggest Tom Holt!.

If you have read all of his books then try Alan Dean Foster's Spell Singer Series!. If that too then Robert Asprin!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Robert Aspirin
Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy

I moved from Piers to read The Dragonlance, Raymond E Feist, and George R R Martin (he takes some getting used to)

You could try Terry Pratchett or Neil Gaiman for funny fantasy!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
