Review
I have to give it a solid five. It's not as puny as some of the earlier myth books and the magic is toned down. But it more than makes up by having solid characters rather than placeholders in which to insert puns. That's the major change in the myth series from it's early roots to it's later days. Just reread this for maybe the 4th time since I found out there were more myth books than I imagined. I liked the early books which were more situational. I much prefer the books in which everyone is working at Myth Inc together. After Skeeve's retirement and everyone splitting up the books seem soaked in bitter sweetness. But you get over that and it's still a great book.
