Playfull and humor filled.

Robert Lynn Asprin has a wonderful style of writing. Right from the beginning he manages to pull you in, as opposed to most other books where the first few pages are usually rather dull. I consider this to be a great series for both adults and adolescents. It's nice to have a space saving combined novel like this. The only reason I rated this a 4 instead of a 5 is because, for some reason, this edition of the book has many typos. When I originally read the first 3 volumes of this series, I don't recall there being this many typos.

Total Enjoyment

Set back, relax and just have a wonderful time with Skeeve and the group. Asprin paints a picture of social issues with tongue in cheak. Keith Laumer, deceased, did a series on Retrief poking fun at the Beaurocy(sp) that is a hoot and this follows not so much on politics as human nature itself.

Classic comedy

This is one of the best series I've followed. It's nice to have so many of the books in one place, but the second of the set (vol 2) started loosing pages as I was reading it. I think they overstepped the quality of the binding a bit with these. There was also minimal re-editing done, so a lot of words are broken or hyphenated where they had been in previous printings. The stories are great, the book quality suffers.

Great light reading but...

I have loved this series since I was in High School and read the graphic novel. It's still great for a light read. I also like the fact that I could get the series in what will soon be two volumes, as I have lost all my originals. However, as has been previously stated by other reviewers, the book has a ton of typographical errors. It became rather annoying trying figure out if words were being intentionally hyphenated for stressing purposes. Also, words run together, obviously misspelled, subscripted, etc. These errors did not make me regret my purchase, but they were rather disappointing. Now, how many typo's are in this review "complaining" about typo's???

A great read!

I throughly enjoyed this book. The plot was great and I laughed the whole way through. Skeeve is a truly likeable character who is always getting into trouble, with the help of his mentor Aahz. Between those two they managed to gather quite an odd assortment of friends, including a pet dragon. I would recommend this book to anyone who has a sense of humor.
