Myth-Told Tales (Myth Adventures)

Rating:
Summary: Not worth it.
Review: 8 dollars for 96 pages and three short stories? C'mon, guys! ...and only one of the three stories was at all satisfying. The first (Skeeve) story didn't need Skeeve to be there. The last (Aazh) Story didn't have a satisfactory ending - it was almost like the first chapter in a much longer story, rather than being complete. Only the one in the middle (Chumly, Tananda, and Guido) had not only a good plot, but tied the ends up. If I wasn't a completist, this would have been a waste of money, and as it was it was about 5 dollars more than it's worth.

Summary: Getting there. . .
Review: For those who have followed the series, this an up-swing after the last few books. It is very good, just somewhat different than the earlier ones. Both authors are great (buy up all the jody books you can get your hands on). It will be interesting where they take the series together. I'm so glad the series didn't die. Make sure you read this one before the next in the new series: they really tie together and they both make more sense that way. It explains all the troublesome Pervect females about . . . They books don't have the same flow, originality, or cleverness as the ealry Myth books, but they are getting there and are worth the price.

Summary: Short but good
Review: I enjoyed this....long over due collection (if you can call three stories a collection) My only gripe is that with an $8 price tag I would have liked a little more book for the buck. It was good to see the characters back in action but.....a little more would have been nice. For true, die hard, fans only.

Summary: A good read
Review: In the style of the previous Myth Link stories, this book offers other points of view besides that of the primary character, Skeeve. For anyone who has followed the adventures of Skeeve, Tananda, Aahz, Guido, and the rest, it is a must have. To those new to the series, it is a easy introduction.

Summary: Short, but if you're jonsing it'll cure what ails you.
Review: It's too short to justify the price, but if you are a true myth-head you'll want it. Of course if you're a true myth-head you already have the book. Unfortunately as all of you know MYTH ALLIANCES was postponed to late July 2004. Oddly enough Amazon didn't update this book's description. What's a year I suppose... At least Robert isn't going through another multi year dry spell.

Summary: Short but Worth Every Penny
Review: Skeeve and friends are back! After Skeeve retired in the previous Myth book, I was a little worried that the Myth books might be at and end. I am overjoyed to find I was mistaken. Moreover, these three short stories, which set the stage for the upcoming novel, show that the our old friends can work just as well, perhaps even better, without the M.Y.T.H. Inc troubleshooters plot device. These stories are as funny and heartfelt as any of the Myth books. Despite its brevity, this book is well worth the price.

Rating:
Summary: Closer to the Originals
Review: They're still not quite as good as the earlier "Myth" books. There was an undercurrent of satire that they haven't gotten back yet. The stories are still entertaining and original.
