Synopsis

Piers Anthony continues the deadly struggle between good and evil in With a Tangled Skein. In this spellbinding novel, Anthony combines a penetrating look at the meaning of life and death with a gripping story of love and loyalty. When the man Niobe loves is shot, she wants revenge. Her only chance is to accept a challenge to solve a maze of riddles devised by Satan himself. But Niobe’s strength is her beauty, not her intelligence, and the fate of the human race hangs in the balance. Can she outwit Satan at his own game, or has her failure already been woven into the very Tapestry of Fate? George Guidall’s enthralling narration captures the essence of Anthony’s rich characters and timeless story. Ingenious, ambitious, and hauntingly philosophical, Piers Anthony's With a Tangled Skein audiobook is him at his best.

I've read this book a few times over the years, and I'll state the same thing at the beginning of reviewing all the I of I books: this is a re-read, and the first time reviewing the books. I'm reviewing all of the books after I finished re-reading the entire series, which I don't normally do & didn'......more

Goodreads review by Meighan on June 15, 2009

I read On a Pale Horse and loved it, so I decided to try the rest of the series. However, the skewed way women are portrayed in this book completely killed any interest I had in it. Not that On A Pale Horse didn't portray women a little strangely, but it wasn't at all a big part of the book because......more
