I've never read anything from this author before so I had no idea what to expect with Another Fine Myth. It's a lot of fun and quite funny. I wish I was able to read this back when it was brand new because I'm sure it really would have been something else way back then. It's a short read and while for the most part the sense of humor worked for me there are some moments that just made it drag on for me. I think I'll have to continue this series - I might have to see it I can get my hands on the audiobook editions.

I thought it was fine. I liked Aahz but Skeeve was pretty annoying. I also thought the climax could have been bigger but it was also fine.

I read this book when I was stuck in the medical barracks when I was getting discharged from the Air Force and it is the only book that has stuck with me since reading Percy Jackson and has even inspired me to read again as an adult because of how unique some of the ideas in the series were. Even I will admit the running gags can become beat a dead horse but it had a beautiful childlike wonder charm to it that helped me stay sane during those troubling months and has even formed how I view and create fantasy today.

My brother and sister gave me the ebooks for the first 8 books in the series this Christmas. This series has long been a favorite of mine, and, in my opinion, Skeeve & Aahz's universe is always worth revisiting. This is the first in the series, and tells how the two first meet, written in the same vein as Terry Pratchett's Disc World books.

The ebook did have some proofreading issues that did detract a bit from the story, but overall they weren't too bad.
