Piers Anthony Disease

A literature phenomenon in which the first book of a series does so well, and may even be considered a classic, that subsequent books in the series become staggeringly formulaic, to the point where the only difference between it and the last one are maybe location, names of characters, and point in time the story takes place in.

Named for Piers Anthony, author of the Xanth series, one of the most notable instances of this phenomenon.

"I really liked Frank Herbert's "Dune". It was honestly a well written story, its just that his other books got quite... similar afterwards. Same general plot, message, almost everything but the names."

"Ah, so he contracted Piers Anthony Disease?"

"I'm afraid so..."

Anthony

Anthony is really an interesting character. He is the guy who pings the respawn beacon 10000 times until you eventually die from distraction. All in all he is a really good friend and is always in it for the meme. He is very thrifty so watch out Amazon because he's got your number on that return policy.

What the heck Anthony, kid why are you doing that you faggot

Anthony

Anthony is a boy who loves to fuck girls until they are pregnant. He also loves to kick people in the dick so other people won't fuck the girls Anthony was fucking.

I wanted to fuck my girlfriend, but Anthony kicked me in the balls so now I have to be a virgin.

Anthony

Anthony is that green eyed handsome guy. 3 things he wont admit are...He is really smart even tho he won't admit it. Ppl will tell him he looks like this one famous guy but wont admit it. He has a really nice singing voice which is also something he wont admit. Most of the girls in his school are in love with him but he only has eyes for one. During a conversation Anthony would ran out of comebacks really easily.

Girlfriend: You sing very good Anthony

Anthony: nah i suck, and i wont change my opinion on that

Girlfriend: Well its your word vs the word of many people that thinks the same :)

Anthony: *ran out of comebacks*
