They're just as scared of us as we are of them

Skeeve, Aahz and company have relocated from Possiltum to the Bazaar in Deva. Their humble abode supplied by the Deveels has a mysterious back door that leads to trouble. A group of con artists escape the Bazaar through the back door and the Deveels want the con artists or the money they stole. Not one to part with money, Aahz goes through the door into the unknown and doesn't return. Skeeve and his companions plan a rescue, but magic doesn't work in this dimension. What will they do now? Asprin succeeds with yet another romp through dimensions with Skeeve and company. If you enjoy his other books, you'll enjoy this one as well.

Great Story Only Outdone By a Greater Cast

The Myth Adventures series is one of my favorites. One of the better fantasy series out there (in my opinion even better than the Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter series) they are a quick read and are good for a ton of non-stop laughter. The reading level is not very advanced, as a 4th grader could easily pick up the book and know exactly what is going on. However this does not detract from the enjoyment an adult can receive from this hilarious novel. The modern jokes and references that might be missed by a child are sure to be appreciated and enjoyed.All of the old characters are back as well as a few new ones to mix things up. Robert Asprin brings together a brilliant cast of diverse characters that are sure to make you smile and rush out to buy the next book in the series just to find out what happens next.Myth-Ing Persons is a must read for any Robert Asprin fan as well as any fan of fantasy as a whole. His unique style guarantees enjoyment for all who read it. Also if you like Myth-Ing Persons you will love Robert Asprin's other books in the series as well as his Thieves' World Series, which is also very good.

Funny and with a good story.

5 stars for the first 5 books in the Myth Adventures series. These books are hilarious, have great characters, and have good stories, too. I highly recomend.

Amusing adventure of Jr Mage & party with modern humor

Very funny, good story too. Irreverant tale of a mage that becomes a court magician. Easy reading, no profanity or explicit sex.
