When Aahz decides to leave
M.Y.T.H. Inc. and Skeeve and return to his home dimension of Perv (see M.Y.T.H.
Inc. Link), Skeeve travels to Perv to convince Aahz to return. His
only companion is Kalvin, a pint-sized Djin who has granted Skeeve one
wish. Skeeve is amazed at the way that Perv has commingled both science
and magic and is quite intimidated by the large metropolis that he ends
up in, never having been in a city before.
Skeeve hops into a taxi
driven by Edvik, who in turn takes Skeeve to a hotel. Skeeve hires
Edvik as a guide, as Skeeve knows little to nothing about Perv, except
that the food smells really nasty, as is the disposition of most of the
natives.
After days with no luck in finding Aahz, Skeeve begins to get
disgruntled and walks into a bar to get a drink. Instead he gets drunk
and plops all of his money down on the table, which, of course, stops
all conversation and has ever Pervert, make that Pervect, eyeing Skeeve
with greed. Without his friends, even in his drunken stupor, Skeeve
knows that he is in more trouble than he can handle.
Myth-nomers
and Im-pervections is the eighth book of
the Myth Adventures series by Robert Asprin. These books are incredibly funny fantasy tales that normally
revolve
around the lives of Skeeve and Aahz. In this book, the focus once again
returns to Skeeve. This book is not a funny as most of the others in the
Myth series, but the still is funny, good and links two books together.
This book also introduces a new character by the name of Pookie, a
female Pervect that Skeeve hires as a bodyguard.
