  <default_description>Orb had a rare gift--the magic which manifested whenever she sang or played her harp. No one could resist her music. But she knew that greater magic lay in the Llano, the mystic music that controlled all things. The quest for the Llano occupied Orb's life. Until she met Natasha, handsome and charming, and an even finer musician. But her mother Niobe came as an Aspect of Fate, with the news that Orb had been chosen for the role of Incarnation of Nature--The Green Mother. But she also warned of a prophecy that Orb was to marry Evil. Could she be sure that Natasha was not really Satan, the Master of Illusion, laying a trap for her...?</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[I'd really been looking forward to reading this book as part of this series. I'd enjoyed the female perspective of Fate, and after being not overly thrilled with War, I thought Gaea would be fun to read. <br/><br/>It was and it wasn't. <br/><br/>I liked it, I really did. Orb is an okay character...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/71744689">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book (the 5th in the series) probably has the most interesting set of characters. Satan in particular gets to be more than just the obvious villian role that he does throughout the previous books. The focus of this novel is Gaea, the green mother, though most of the book consists of character d...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/51256416">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Probably the weakest of the series, at least prior to the nigh incoherent and disturbing mess of the final book.  Each tale seems to spend more and more time with the character before they become an Incarnation... and is proportionately less and less interesting for it.  ]]></body>
