Piers Anthony's best-selling Incarnations of Immortality series has delighted readers with its wonderful mixture of contemporary situations and unconventional views of traditional magical themes. Being a Green Mother continues Anthony's entertaining look at society through a lens of magic. Orb is four years old when she first hears the wonderful music of the morning. Gifted with a magic that makes her songs irresistible anytime she sings or plays the harp, she spends her life seeking the source of the mystical music that controls all things. After years spent with Gypsies and traveling shows, Orb finally feels she's getting somewhere when she hooks up with the Livin' Sludge, a rock band that could use all the magic they can find. Unfortunately, there's still the pesky little matter of a prophecy to deal with: the prediction that Orb will someday marry Evil, the devil himself. Barbara Caruso's lyrical narration is a wonderful addition to this endlessly inventive series.

      In this entry in the Incarnations of Immortality series, the Orb catches her first glimpse of the world of magic and music at the age of 4 and spends her life in search of the source of the mystical music that controls all beings and cures all ills. Caruso creates a characterization of Orb that matures with the character, while maintaining a childlike sense of awe and wonder. Caruso captures the essence of her characters and the larger-than-life events in which they participate. She provides a strong and well-paced narration that makes it hard to set aside. Her clear and rich singing voice is an added bonus. J.E.M. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award. (c) AudioFile 2001, Portland, Maine
