Reseñas de la Crítica

"Fleeing persecution by the Church, a young sorcerer in medieval France seeks refuge among the Franciscans, dedicating his life to the triumph of good over evil until a strange twist of fate forces him to assume the role of his greatest enemy and take his place among the immortal Incarnations. In his most ambitious work yet, Anthony tackles sensitive moral issues with his customary high spirits." ( Library Journal)

Love it

For an agnostic man, Piers sure can get into some detail about God and Satan. Somewhere during the middle I noticed a bit of "Dante's inferno". After listening to the first 5 and really disliking Satan, my opinion of him changed when you get to see things from his point of view. Oh call me a heratic, but I find myself sympathizing with this poor character. As always, very well written. Still not crazy bout the narrator although she did a better job in this one than book 5. Maybe because she did not have to do any fairy or nymph voices in this one.

Loved it would recommend this book to anyone .Hope to finish the series with the last audiobook

The best book in the series.

This book is the best in the series in my opinion. The story is tighter and the characters are much better developed. the best part is this is the novel that ties all the other books together. that makes it really interesting to see what was going on from the person seen as the enemy for the series to date.

perry. my favorites character

Perry is my favorite character out of the whole. series of the incarnation of immortality

Excellent performance !

I read this series over 20 years ago in college but never really appreciated until I heard the Audible version.
This performance definitely left me wanting more. Fortunately there is one more book to go!!!

I Love Piers!

Would you consider the audio edition of For Love of Evil to be better than the print version?

Yes with my eyes going as I get older the audio books bring my back the stories I can't read any more.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Who else but Perry too many whys to list. Give it a listen you'll see why. Also Jolie is a perfect love interest.

What does Barbara Caruso bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Her inflection and character voices bring the story to life even better than when I read it the first five times.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Jolies death and Perrys rise as the evil incarnation.

Any additional comments?

Read this and any Piers Anthony you can get your hands on! He's punny, intelligent, and a wordsmith like no other this or last decade.

wasn t my favorite but I loved the ending and the

wasn t my favorite out of the series but the ending and 2nd half way better than the first half...still love how the series just works so well together!!!

Best in the series

If you could sum up For Love of Evil in three words, what would they be?

Enlightening, fascinating, brilliant

What did you like best about this story?

I loved that this story brought together all of the other books in the series. Perspective is everything.

What about Barbara Caruso’s performance did you like?

The narrator's performance was clean and the characters came to life.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When the main character revealed his love.

Great Scot!! Amazing

I read this about 16 years ago and always talked about this book. I decided to purchase the Audible version. Love it! Worth it!!

Not as good as I remember 20 years later.

Honestly the story hasn't aged well. But it has sentimental value to me. Too much referring back to Green Mother, and held back by having to be framed by the previous novels.
