Editorial Review: Someone--or something--masquerading as Skeeve the Magnificent is racking up hundreds of thousands of gold pieces of debt. It's up to Aahz the Pervect (not pervert!) to find the myth-creant and put an end to the shopping spree.

Rating: - A Myth looking for it's identity...
I've been a long time lover of the Myth series and I've loved the various antics of Aahz (not Oz) and Skeeve. These books are quick entertainment that I look forward to reading because of how fast the action is and how tightly Mr Asprin writes the books.
Myth-Taken Identity is an off-shoot of the mainline, meaning we're only dealing with part of the Myth Inc. team; Aahz (I love Aahz, reminds me of New York), Chumley (another favorite), and Massha racing off to The Mall to save Skeeves credit. ... Read More
Rating: - Shopping gone mad...
This is a good book, and definately fitting of the Myth series. With that said, it was a little slow and seemed to jump from slow to "skipped over" in a few spots. Not quite as enjoyable as the rest of the series, but still worthy of the read.
Rating: - Who wrote / illustrated this book?
Myth-Taken Identity is the 14th book in the Myth series so there is a kind of familiarity among followers of the series. Even with the long hiatus that took place because of Bob Asprin's IRS troubles, there is a significant body of work that one can read and appreciate the Myth world and what it represents and how it is written.

The Myth series has always relied on a kind of light humor with gentle touches - in ... Read More
Rating: - Not a Myth book
First let me say that I'm a recent convert to the Myth fan persuasion. I recently ready the first twelve books and by and large enjoyed all of them. Myth-Taken Identity, however, just is not the same. Sure the characters in this book have the same names and some of the same descriptions as the rest the characters in the rest of the series, but it just has a different feel.
At first it grated on me (actually Chumley's speech still does... just adding "what?" to the end of a sentence doesn't ... Read More
Rating: - pathetic
Another great writer sells out. Read the original series but forget the rest. Nothing but pap, bad puns, and even worse dialoque. It's obvious that Mr Asprin does very little in regards to providing imput on the new books. I was barely able to finish the book instead of throwing it away in disgust. To sum it up; this and the other myth books with the co-authors are pure garbage. The death of a good series and not a dignify one.
