Class Dis-Mythed

If you like the series, you'll love this one. It gets back to the roots of what made Skeeve such a lovable character and the humor/wit in this book is back on top! One of the best of the Myth series.

Having been a fan of the Myth series from the beginning, I was happy to find a new title with my favorite characters. I was a bit taken aback at paying this price for what amounted to a novelette, but the level of humor and the new characters were worth it. The cameos of familiar friends dropping in to teach a class to Skeeve's new students were fun visits. I really enjoyed the take-off of the extreme sports game at the end. Trying to figure out how they will get out of each challenge kept me glued to the story. Lots of adventure, puzzles and humor in a slim volume

Truely a Myth book. I loved it from beginning to end! I can't wait for the next one.

The book is much more like the old ones, and I found it to be very nice, albeit fast, reading. The book is stretched out by way of font size and spacing (were normally formatted it would probably be 30% thinner). It was short reading. The book, for me, was not very funny, but just a nice little myth style adventure. It certainly is not as funny as a Terry Pratchett book. I gave it 4 stars for several reasons, but my biggest gripe is the cost of the book for what really is a couple of hours of reading, and I am not a very fast reader. Still, if you are a fan of the series you will enjoy this book. I also wish that Aahz played a bigger role. I don't want to give too much away, but there is a little bit of a twist that makes for nice reading, but some of it was just a little too simple and too easy. You will see what I mean when you read the book. Those were the reasons for my 4 stars.

From the old school cover art (from Phil Foglio) to the return of the old school MYTH series style... The MYTH Series is back! I must admit, I wasn't expecting much from this recient MYTH book given how I believe the last few didn't measure up to the origional 10 books of the series. This will showed me how nice it is to be wrong. I have been a fan of the MYTH series since "Another Fine MYTH". So please believe me when I say that if you liked the earlier MYTH books you will like Class Dis-MYTHed. If you have shied away from the MYTH series because the most recient examples have not measured up, be ready for a plesent supprise. My only critisisim is that there isn't enough Aahz (but I guess if Skeeve is now the teacher we have to keep Aahz to a minimum). However, I will say that Skeeve is starting to take on more and more of Aahz's traits. On a similar note, I did like how Skeeve's students have filled his old role of "mistake making apprentices". The apprarences off old favoriates from previous books was also a great addition. If you like the old MYTH series, grab Class Dis-MYTHed. If you like the Xanth series by Piers Anthony, grab Class Dis-MYTHed. If you like to laugh, grab Class Dis-MYTHed. If you know what is good for you (as Don Bruce says), grab Class Dis-MYTHed.
