Commentary Supposing Books Another Fine Myth (Myth Adventures #1)

“C'mon kid. Think a minute, even if it hurts.” Skeeve used to be a magician apprentice until an assassin (who paid for the deed with his life right away) brought an untimely end to his master, but not before the latter summoned a demon. “The Demon curled its lips back, revealing a double row of needle-sharp teeth. I considered changing my chosen course of action; I considered fainting.” Now Skeeve was stuck with the said demon who seems to have a very nice friendly personality: “Are you going to shake my hand, or am I going to rip your heart out?” To complicate things further the demon turned out to be quite different from what anybody would expect: in his case "Demon" stands for "Dimensional Traveler" and the guy's native dimension was called Perv, making Aazh one of his inhabitants, or Pervert (another hint about his nice personality). The two teamed up to deal with the powerful magician who hired the assassin. Their weapons? Skeeve's rudimentary magic skills and Aazh's ability to talk anybody's head off. Fun times are about to start - and they sure will. This book is funny. It has everything a good humorous fantasy is supposed to have: great puns, amusing dialog, absurd laugh-out-loud situations, colorful and equally amusing characters. Sadly this series nowadays is mostly forgotten and the first name that comes up when people think of humorous fantasy is Discworld. However it took Sir Terry Pratchett at least 3 books to become funny; this one makes you smile practically on the second page. The quality does drop off sharply after the first 5 or 6 books, but the initial ones are great. My only complaint is that it took practically two thirds of the book before the dynamic duo arrived on Deva's Bazaar: a truly colorful place with some excellent recurring characters (see above). I can recommend this series to anybody who needs a good laugh; it also works great as a cure for a book hangover (my personal experience).

Piece Appertaining To Books Another Fine Myth (Myth Adventures #1)

I read Evgenys great review about this book and decided that it's just perfect for me. Thanks, Evgeny, for turning my attention to this book ;) The story in Another Fine Myth is filled with humor, puns and it is quick, easy, and a pure delight to read. I swallowed it in one day time enjoying each light-hearted and entertaining page (if not for my work it would have been quicker!). And I definitely had a laughable good time. Its not a serious book with lots of depth, but its quick-paced and

As a culture, we are always looking for the next best thing. Computers, cars, you name it. And, of course, books. Everything from urban fantasy to suspense, young adult to horror. Sometimes, though, what is New isnt what we really need. Instead, what is Old is new again, or rather, it should be!I just listened to Another Fine Myth by Robert Asprin, and narrated by Noah Michael Levine. First printed in 1978, I found the series way back then, and have the whole collection in paper. Recently,

I read quite a few of the books in this series several years ago. I remembered enjoying it then, so I thought I'd give it a re-read now and see if the magik was still there. Indeed it is! Another Fine Myth is a highly entertaining light read that I couldn't put down.The story revolves around the adventures of a young magician's apprentice, Skeeve. Skeeve is a likable character, if a bit naive and the misadventures that he gets into with his friends are a magical romp through a universe of magik,

Ready enjoyable witty fantasy, pure silly fun but with warmer characters than other satire I've read.The story begins with a poor thief turned apprentice magician Skeeve who meets a 'Pervert sorry Pervect' demon called Aahz, who was summoned to jazz up one of Skeeves's lessons. After the untimely demise of his own teacher Garkin, Skeeve becomes Aahz's apprentice and so begins their amusing adventure to avenge Garkin and set the world right. The only odd part of the whole narrative for me was

Short and fun! It's very much proto-Pratchett in its way of telling its story while affectionately mocking fantasy tropes with lots of humor. When a wizard summons a demon and gets murdered in the process, his apprentice is left to solve the murder with the help of said demon... who turns out to be an extradimensional lizard with the sardonic wit and canny intelligence of Sam Spade. Seems there's a Big Bad about who needs stopping, and our demon has a dozen tricky plans to do it. This twosome

If you crave for a new taste in fantasy-comedy (other than Discworld) and you're willing to ignore the plot that seems like a fifth grade stage play, unbelievably gullible paper-thin characters and the most incompetent villain in the history of the genre, there might be something for you here. Myth's sf/f plane-hopping setting and whacky characters that communicate almost exclusively in comedic (often hilarious) banter has a certain unique charm that immediately grows on you, making you forget

Unabridged audio.Skeeve was a magician's apprentice, until the magician got killed that is. Unfortunately he was killed by an assassin just as he summoned a "demon". "Demon"-that's short for "Dimensional Traveler". Things just go from bad to worse once they find that he (the Dimensional Traveler that is, the demon) is stuck in Skeeve's dimension, a real backwater. See as I said, Skeeve is just an apprentice. The "demon" (Aahv)instead of killing Skeeve explains that he is a wizard in his own
