 Niobe loses her young husband to attack by Satan. When she tries to get him back, she instead becomes an aspect of Fate. Through it all, she is determined to keep Satan from becoming all powerful.

I first read this book in the early 90s. I liked this one better than the first two of the series. Upon reading it a second time, I liked it, but not as much as I did as a young adult. If you like Piers Anthony, you will certainly like this. The misogyny gets a little tiresome after a while.
