Summary: The Myth series took it's nose-dive with this book!
Review: After finishing Myth-ing Persons for the fifth time, I began longing for the next book. Finally I got around to hitting the bookstore, where I bought "Little Myth Marker" to "Myth-nomers and Impervections". I thought, 'Finally! I've waited so long!!' I was so excited I was shaking. As soon as I got home, I immediately began reading Little Myth Marker. Suprisingly, I found myself completely disapointed. Sure, it had it's amusing spots, but it simply wasn't drop-dead funny, as I like to call it. I sensed that Mr. Asprin (may he never die!) used the characters in the story as a mirror for his own feelings, too much this time. Aahz and Skeeve and Tanda and the rest didn't seem to have their own personalities anymore. And at the end, instead of toppling over laughing, or staring thoughtfully at the cover, I cried my eyes out. (I could have been PMS'ing...so what!?) That business about Markie not joining M.Y.T.H. Inc. was too much. I don't know how to explain it. I simply think the book sucked, when compared with the rest. I almost feel like I've lost my best friends...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My favorite of the Myth series!
Review: Even now (years after my first reading of this book), I still pick it up every once in a while for fun. I love the "Myth" series (I still futilely hope Asprin will write another one!), and I think this one is the best of them all. I appear to be in the minority, but I like "Little Myth Marker". It reveals an interesting depth to the characters, particularly Aahz and Massha. And its take on parenthood is alternately funny and touching.

Summary: Not exactly there.
Review: I love Robert Asprin's Myth series. Little Myth Marker was not exactly with his usual Myth stuff. I loved it, it was a good turn for the series.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: It was a good book, but I did not like the ending.
Review: I think that this was an excellent addition to the Myth series. I did, however, not enjoy the ending. I believe that Markie should have joined Myth Inc. Skeeve's decision did not fit, because Skeeve comes off as a character willing to accept new friends, or at least think twice about not letting them in. The rest of the book was excellent though, so I would most definately recomend it as an addition to any home library.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: My least favorite of the series but still good.
Review: Not as much action in this one in that it all takes place in the bazaar as opposed to Skeeve being chased through alternate dimensions. It wasn't as funny as the others but it was still good. For it's length it was worth it. I don't think I would have enjoyed it if it was a lot longer.

Asprin has created the most unforgettable set of characters I can think of. I feel like I have lived with these characters all my life (but I guess I almost have considering I started reading them years ago).

Summary: 3+stars you got to be kidding
Review: sorry folks but this was Asprin's worst work to date. He came off a long hiatis and wrote what appeared to me to be woman hating drivel. Im left asking what happened? and if that wasn't bad enough he went back on hiatis right after publishing this one. well one can only hope that the next one will redeem him.

Review: This book is really terrific. It's not quite as good as the previous books in the series, but that's still pretty good.
