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.

Best-selling novelist Piers Anthony creates fresh, original takes on age-old themes like love and death. In For the Love of Evil, he adds a delightful new chapter to a series that has captivated millions.

Critic reviews

"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)

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.

Love it

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.

The best book in the series.

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.

I Love Piers!
