199183732Wheeling WV: Innovation Books 1991. First Printing Stated. Trade paperback. Very good. Mike Okamoto Matt Thompson Bard Gorby. 48 pages plus covers. Profusely illustrated in color. This is Book One of Six. In a contemporary society where magic and science are both taken for granted a man named Zane down on his luck attempts suicide--only to find himself confronting and killing the embodiment of Death! Zane is forced to take his place as one of the Incarnations of Immortality along with Fatem Time War and Mother Nature. Book One: "To Buy a Stone" begins a story of beautiful women adventures in Hell and a Heaven as loaded with bureaucracy as the next business! Piers Anthony Dillingham Jacob born 6 August 1934 is an American author in the science fiction and fantasy genres publishing under the name Piers Anthony. He is best known for his long-running novel series set in the fictional realm of Xanth. Many of his books have appeared on The New York Times Best Seller list and he claims one of his greatest achievements has been to publish a book beginning with every letter of the alphabet from Anthonology to Zombie Lover. In 1957 Anthony decided to join the United States Army as his wife was now pregnant and they needed both medical coverage and a steady source of income. During his two-year enlistment he became a naturalized U.S. citizen in 1958 and became an editor and cartoonist for his battalion's newspaper.<br /> After completing military service he briefly taught school at Admiral Farragut Academy in St. Petersburg Florida before deciding to try to become a full-time writer. David Campiti born May 9 1958 is an American animation producer comic book writer talent agent and co-founder of Innovation Publishing.2 As CEO of Glass House Graphics3 Campiti oversees an international animation studio and agency of illustrators writers painters and digital designers. In 1988 Campiti wrote a business proposal which helped raise $400000 to finance the launch of Innovation Publishing. Innovation brought literary film and TV tie-in series and adaptations such as Anne Rice's The Vampire Lestat Dark Shadows Quantum Leap and Lost in Space. Incarnations of Immortality is the name of an eight-book fantasy series by Piers Anthony. The books each focus on one of eight supernatural "offices" Death Time Fate War Nature Evil Good and Night in a fictional reality and history parallel to ours with the exception that society has advanced both magic and modern technology. The series covers the adventures and struggles of a group of humans called "Incarnations" who hold these supernatural positions for a certain time. The title alludes to William Wordsworth's 1804 poem Ode: Intimations of Immortality. Incarnations uses its premise to ponder questions regarding the nature of life. As each character goes from a mortal life to the "office" of an Incarnation they are forced to contemplate their actions on a daily basis. Each Incarnation may use their office within limits as they see fit. This system humanizes what would otherwise be impersonal forces leading to both extensive considerations of the effects of the incarnation's work and the impact it has on not only humanity but also the other offices of immortality as well. Another humorous side of Incarnations is the portrayed magic/technology duality. Most series emphasize one or the other means of understanding and manipulating the world but in Incarnations each method is equal in usefulness and respect. This leads to a number of amusing parallels such as competition between automobile and magic-carpet manufacturers. By the future time period of Norton magic is referred to as the Fifth Fundamental Force with its own primary particle the Magicon similar to a graviton. A few other series have used the technology/magic combined motif notably Apprentice Adept another series by Piers Anthony and Four Lords of the Diamond by Jack Chalker although that book had an actual technological basis for the explanation of its magic in contrast to Piers Anthony's work. Anthony uses the number five extensively. The five Incarnations are associated with the five elements Death with Earth Fate with Water War with Fire Nature with Air and Time with Void and often other items with fives the previously mentioned Book of Five Rings. There are five fundamental interactions magic being the fifth. The Llano consists of five songs. In On a Pale Horse Gaea teaches Zane five patterns of thought each represented by diagrams of five short lines. A fourth theme of Incarnations is the multigenerational human story between the Incarnations. Previous characters repeatedly appear in later novels and by the final novel every major character is related by blood marriage or affair. The Showtime series Dead Like Me was inspired by the book On a Pale Horse. Innovation Books paperback
