Series: Myth Adventures #1 [There are a few mild spoilers for the first couple chapters. I don’t tell you how it ends.] A friend lent this to me saying it was funny. It wasn’t. [Aside: This same friend really liked Redshirts, so this is probably a matter of taste.] Oh, it tried. It really trie...
Philosophical Musings of a Book Nerd
Well, it is 11:30 (it was 11:00 when I first started writing this review but my computer crashed which mean I lost everything – so much for autosave) and while I should be in bed fast asleep since I do have to go to work tomorrow I would rather be sitting here writing my review because, well, I woul...

One of the main reasons that I read this book was because it kept on appearing on the Goodread's sidebar entitled 'Readers also enjoyed' which I suspect has something to do with all of the Terry Pratchett books that I have read. Okay, I generally don't pay all that much to Goodreads recommendations,...

DNF'd at page 88. Boring, unfunny and I am just not interested what unlimited money can buy in the way of loyalty. Now if any of these 'misfits' had been real trouble, maybe I would have stuck it out.

Ugh. The story seemed interesting, and I tried to get at least halfway through, but the stupid girl acts /way/ too childish. When you expect some progress in the storyline, all you get is her annoying attitude. I’m glad I don’t have a physical copy because I’m totally anti-book burning but this one ...

Not so much! A fast and sometimes funny piece of meh fantasy.

That was a very enjoyable book. It was not amazing or a masterpiece or something utterly original but it was funny and interesting without being too long! A quick and easy read! 3.5 stars!

The trouble with the Thieves' World anthologies is that the authors chose to set the stories in the seediest rundown dump of a city imaginable. It clearly became a contest between the contributors to see who could come up with the nastiest character to place in the rotten setting.

With Thieves' World Asprin and company invented the shared-world anthology. Some day the world may be able to forgive them for that.
All the Time in the World
All the Time in the World rated it 16 years ago
I stumbled across the first volume of the Thieves' World anthology series shortly after it came out, and being a die-hard, ultimately I bought and read all 12 of the collections (and most of the novels), but after about vol. 6 it was more a labor of stamina and obligation than one of love. The town...
