“This book is where the novels really start tying together (pardon the pun). The story of Niobe doesn't just cover her roles as Fate, but it also goes over the transition from being a younger woman to being a middle-aged woman. That's not just from the perspective of the woman, but in terms of the people around her.”

“Book three of my favorite series. This is where everything really comes together in the series. This book can also stand alone with the intricate details of this family. Anthony never fails to create an enjoyable read.”

“This book was easier for me to relate to because it had more of an element of woman in it. It seemed quite heart-warming at times and I really felt the emotions of the characters.”

“Love this series - This was the best book in this series in my opinion - but you should read them in order.”

I actually don't know if I will finish the series after reading this book, as Mr. Anthony obviously has difficulty not only writing from a woman's perspective, but also appreciating that a female can have any substantial contribution to the greater storyline other than being lead around by the men in her life! I love the idea of the incarnations series, but this was hardly worth my time and effort.”

“This is book number three in the Piers Anthony Incarnations of Immortality series. While I wasn't as into this one as much as the previous two, it was a decent diversion. With a Tangled Skein covers the aspect of Fate. Fate is embodied by three incarnations: Clotho, Lachesis and Atropos. Fate has to outsmart Satan in his plot for world domination and keep the door open for her granddaughter Luna to become the savior of man. This book is high on humor but the story line just seemed kind of lacking. It felt thrown together. I am curious to see if the rest of the series continues to go downhill or if it gets better.”

“I read this series many years ago and it ranks as one of my all-time favorites. This book chronicles the deity Fate and her 3 aspects: the maiden, the mother and the crone. It's a very interesting and insightful book and I highly recommend it for those who love fantasy.”
