Book Description:
A magnificent saga of passion, heroism, and survival, Piers Anthony's Isle of Woman is a tale like no other ever written. It is nothing less than the story of humanity itself, from its savage origins to its troubled future, told through the lives on one family reborn throughout history.

At once grand in scope and intimate in human detail, Isle of Woman tells the story of a man and a woman born at the dawn of human history, separated by fate, yet united by an unquenchable passion that even time could not conquer: Blaze, the fireworker who raised his kind out of savagery, and Ember, the beautiful green-eyed woman who forever haunted his dreams.

Isle of Woman is a powerful and prophetic masterwork from one of the bestselling storytellers of our time.

Piers Anthony is a stellar author. I began with his Xanath storie, then picked up his geodyssey novels when they were published. While this is very different from the Xanath humor, it is a thought provoking story that carries the reader through time from past to future while telling the tale of one family/couple. I love historical fiction of this nature, and found it to be an engrossing read.
