Sam Knight answered Goodreads's question: If you could travel to any fictional book world, where would you go and what would you do there? Piers Anthony's Xanth, where I would catalog, but maybe not sample, every form of edible magic plant, starting with buttercups, which I definitely would sample.

Quotes by Sam Knight (?)

“‎'Twould be easy to say 'tis a gift, but 'twould also be an untruth. Beauty and compliments are always to be found in the truth, when not maliciously brought to light.”
