  Incarnations of Immortality - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Incarnations of Immortality is the name of a seven-book fantasy series by Piers Anthony.
One minor problem with the continuity of the series is that, throughout the rest of the novels, the official title for the Incarnation of Death is Thanatos and everyone recognizes this, both Incarnations, dead souls, supernatural beings, and mortals.
Norton experiments with his hourglass, recognised by all the Incarnations as being the most powerful magical device in the universe, to halt and/or reverse time, travel many millions of years into the Earth's past, and work with the Incarnation of Fate, who needs his hourglass to help fix tangles in her threads of fate.

On a Pale Horse (Incarnations of Immortality, Bk.
He is incarnate now, essentially immortal from the likes of man, so long as he dons his protective cape, but he is still susceptible if he is exposed without the cape.
But the various incarnates such as those of fate, nature and time have converged and picked Zane to assume this role because of his convictions and know that he will not just accept the status quo; that he will use his powers to fight Satan.

 Incar RPG   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Incarnations, in the Deborah and Julie inspired crack filled pipe dream, is a homegrown game loosely (read: VERY loosely) based upon the series of books entitled Incarnations of Immortality by Piers Anthony.
We have not asked his permission to play with these concepts, but this is a private game with absolutely no illusions of representing his ideas or being responsible for coming up with them.
We have mages, Family members, entire families if you want them, utterly ordinary mortals, immortals, engineers, Incarnations of Immortality, demons, angels, vampires (no, not the WoD vampires), telepaths, Various Types Of Mentalist Folks (tk, psychometry, teleportation, etc.), high school teachers, and a few otherwise unremarkable folks with talents that are just utterly unexplained.

 Debate & Discourse - His Dark Materials / Paradise Lost / Incarnations of Immortality   (Site not responding. Last check: )
It is claimed in some quarters that "His Dark Materials" is a setting for children of Milton's "Paradise Lost." I'm not necessarily sure I buy that, although that stems partly from lack of familiarity with the latter.
Also in the "discussion of good and evil" category, although grounded in a Christian framework to the universe, is Piers Anthony's "Incarnations of Immortality" series.
In my opinion, the first 6 are remarkably better than the 7th, but it's the last two that take on good and evil more directly than the first five (although understanding them is greatly facilitated by reading the first ones).

 The Geeky Guide to Nearly Everything: [Books] Being a Green Mother (Incarnations of Immortality - Book 5)
Well, it seems I'm pretty much committed to finishing the rest of the Incarnations of Immortality before moving on to any other book series.
This time around, she took the spotlight, so as a reader you assume she will take on the mantle of Nature and you go through the first few chapters waiting for this to happen.
That's the beauty of this book at the same time - the story of Orb is quite compelling even outside the realm of the Incarnations (although they make a generous number of appearances throughout the story) and amongst the lives of those they've affected.

Author of the well known Xanth novels as well as the Incarnations of Immortality (one of which is shown here).
The Incarnations of Immortality, unlike most series, gets better as the reader progresses through the series.
However this series is unusual in that any of the first six books can be read in any order and the reader will still be able to completely enjoy each story separately and later be astounded at how each tale is interconnected to the other.

 Incarnations of Immortality by Piers Anthony Book Reviews
The Incarnations of Immortality has opened my eyes to sci fi/fantasy.
The series is extremely intriguing, in that it discusses the usual incarnations Death, Time, Fate, War, Nature, Evil and Good from a new point of view.
From the individual Incarnations methods of travelling to their powers to their interactions and relationships, I was like a fly caught in the web (pardon me, Nature) of an extremely crafty spider.

Norton knew the Incarnations were real humans who had assumed the different positions.
Norton's travels through time, interactions with the other Incarnations, and life before he became Chronos are all interesting.

Of all the Incarnations of Immortality books that I've had a chance to read thus far, With a Tangled Skein
Plus, the character of Niobe and the complications of her particular story is vividly fascinating in itself and once coupled with that of the office of Fate and the worlds of the Incarnations, and you have the makings of some pretty amazing storytelling.
More than that, it becomes clearer and clearer that the complex plot threads hinted at in the first two books are a lot more interwoven than we readers could have imagined initially and thus the whole series ahead becomes even more interesting and promising.
