Myth Conceptions
by Robert Asprin
I was running low on books, and my brother offered to lend me one. He grabbed a handful from his bookcase that he thought I’d like; one was Robert Asprin’s Myth Conceptions. I couldn’t put this book down! Hilarious, quick, and adventurous, this is a must-read for any comedy or fantasy lover.
In this book perfect for those who don’t normally read fantasy, an unlikely hero joins forces with a band of misfits and a voluptuous heroine to save the kingdom. In a funny comedy of errors, the hero—hilariously named Skeeve—gets taken to the palace to act as the court magician. Of course, he’s completely inept with only a minimal knowledge of magic. That’s where his friends come in!
The plot movies quickly, keeping readers’ attention spans riveted. Every page contains a joke or a cleverly written line to evoke a smile, and the very likable characters make it virtually impossible to put down. I couldn’t stop laughing when I read this; if you need a pick-me-up, borrow it from your brother and get ready for a good time.
