Publisher Description

Best-selling novelist Piers Anthony creates fresh, original takes on age-old themes like love and death. In For Love of Evil, he adds a delightful new chapter to a series that has captivated millions. Parry's promising life as a musician and apprentice in the arts of White Magic got thrown off track by the violent death of his beloved. Led down a path of depravity by a harlot demoness, Parry has lived a long, corrupt life that may finally be coming to an end-unless he can defeat Lucifer himself at the gates of Hell and become the new Incarnation of Evil. Completely accessible as a stand-alone book, For Love of Evil at the same time provides a fresh view of events from previous Incarnations of Immortality titles, such as Wielding a Red Sword and Being a Green Mother. Narrator Barbara Caruso brings just the right blend of adventure and humor to this truly enchanting tale.

"Out of all the books I've read of this series, For Love of Evil has always been my favorite. The questions he poses as Satan, and the way he runs things, really follows after my own heart on how things should be done. The punishment should fit the crime and those dirtied by sins not of their own doing shouldn't be punished to begin with. The rules of what makes someone good enough to go to 'heaven' are warped and really should be thought about. We won't even get into the emotional struggle that Parry himself goes through in losing his wife, fighting temptation from the greatest temptress of all, then taking over the spot of the greatest bad guy in the realm of man...when he's not bad at all. This many levels of philosophical ideals coupled with great writing has always, and will always make this book a Must Read Monday for me. ~ D. F. Krieger"

    " Just the fact that Piers Anthony is able to make a fairly convincing argument for an incarnation of evil is pretty amazing. It is a difficult topic, but he does it surprisingly well. My major complaint is that the story line seems a bit awkward at times, which he seems to try to cover by blaming it on the fact that men are slaves to sex. Hmmm, not convinced. Having said that, there is a fair bit of sex in this one, so it probably is not a great choice for younger fantasy readers. "
