Thanks to a reader, we were told to check out the latest update by fantasy author Piers Anthony to his website, and there the author told his readers about a new development with one of his properties. "The option contracts with Disney for ON A PALE HORSE have now been completed, so maybe that movie will come to pass," writes the author on his website. "The prior option on XANTH faded, but there is strong new interest, so that too may happen. We'll see."
First published in the 1980s, ON A PALE HORSE is the first volume in Anthony's Incarnations of Immortality series. The novel postulates that Death is a real individual, and when he is killed, the person responsible for Death's murder must become the new incarnation of the Grim Reaper. ON A PALE HORSE tells the story of the latest incarnation of Death, how he came by the job and the tug of war he finds himself in between Heaven and Hell.
