Robert Asprin 1946-2008

Myth-Nomers and Im-Pervections

A moment of silence please for fantasy/SF author, Robert Asprin, who has passed away at 62. Author of the delightful MYTH Adventures, a seemingly never-ending series of novellas, which chronicled the lovable Skeeve, Aahz, Tananda, the pet dragon Gleep, and the carnival of other characters making up the M.Y.T.H. mythos.

I very much enjoyed reading my way through almost all of the 19 books, which began in 1978 and may not end with the latest published just this year. For 30 years I and others have followed Skeeve grow from an inept wizard’s apprentice to the wealthy CEO of his own magical adventuring company. Many LOLs were had in these pages, and many there are many more to come as other readers discover the series.

Robert Asprin will be sorely mythed.
