I've been re-reading the Xanth series lately. People say these books are misogynistic, but I only feel like the first two books (from the perspective of Bink) could be interpreted that way. Sure there's a lot of cheesecake, but in the next few books the love interests (Millie, Irene, and Tandy) are all great, relateable characters with plenty of agency. In Night Mare, even Queen Iris, formerly a sorceress villain, has her humanizing moments.

What's the deal? Do people just read "A Spell for Chameleon" and then write off the entire series as woman-hating trash?
