Title: Pretty Bad
Product review: This was a truly disappointing fall from the standard that the MYTH series had previously upheld. The first twelve or so books were pretty good, and quite fun. This one...was not.Where to start? First, like the later Xanth novels, this suffered mightily from the desire to be funny, but lacked the cred. Introducing a distant location and filling it with zany jokes and madcap is a good sign that something is terribly wrong. Having the characters run around without any kind of character development, at all, is another good sign.Let me say, though, that I disagree with so many that the problem is Jody Lynn Nye. I think that it is really, really hard to maintain the funny forever. I guess perhaps eventually Robert Aspirin lost it. <Shrug>.Harkius
