From the Inside Flap:
When life seemed pointless to Norton, he accepted the position as the Incarnation of Time, even though it meant living backward from present to past. The other seemingly all-powerful incantations of Immortality--Death, Fate, War, and Nature--made him welcome. Even Satan greeted him with gifts. But he soon discovered that the gifts were cunning traps and he had become enmeshed in a complex scheme of the Evil One to destroy all that was good....
About the Author:
Piers Anthony, sometimes called Pier Xanthony, is the pseudonym of a Mundane character who was born in England in 1934, came to America in 1940, was naturalized in 1958, and moved to Xanth in 1977. His first story was published in 1963, and his first novel, Chthon, in 1967. His first Xanth novel, A Spell for Chameleon, won the August Derleth Fantasy Award as the best novel for 1977, and his fantasy novels began placing on the New York Times bestseller list with Ogre, Ogre. He shifted from writing in pencil to writing on the computer, and Golem in the Gears was his first novel created on the machine; naturally, the computer found its way into Xanth.

Cover Art: Steven Crisp (illustrator). 1985 Edition. © 1984: 2nd in the 'Incarnations Of Immortality' series of books. 1st printing of 1985 edition:- Synopsis: In a world where physics and magic flow side by side, the Incarnation of Time is a potentially powerful figure. But Chronos is fated to perform his task backwards: he begins his career at its end - as a complete novice, ill-equipped to cope with the subtle schemes of Satan, the Father of Lies and Illusions. It was only after the death of the child he had fathered, and the suicide of the woman he loved, that Norton accepted the role of Time - and took up the power-filled hourglass. But his terrible loss, combined with his awesome capabilities, made him peculiarly vulnerable to Satan's wiles:- (original cost £2.50). Seller Inventory # 13.002.00008
