Als Skeeve, der Zauberlehrling, eines Tages in sein Quartier zurückkommt, findet er dort einen Dämon. Nun ist das für ihn nichts Außergewöhnliches; denn sein Lehrmeister Aahz ist selbst ein Dämon – kurz für: Dimensionsreisender. Doch dieser neue Ankömmling hat nichts Besseres zu tun, als Skeeves Meister zu entführen - und so steht unser armer Zauberlehrling plötzlich alleine da. Doch er bleibt natürlich nicht lange allein. Im Handumdrehen hat er selbst einen Lehrling am Hals - und danach fängt die Sache erst an, richtig schiefzugehen.

Mixing magic, mayhem, myth and mirth, Myth Directions is the third book in Robert Asprin's clathic of comic fantathy.

A magician's apprentice, only half-way through his indentures, a purple-tongued demon, a universe populated by devils, imps, dragons and unicorns is the basis of a funny non-stop switchback of magic, mayhem and mythadventure.

Skeeve is in a real pickle this time. His partner Aahz has disappeared, and it looks like foul play. Finding Aahz ought to be a snap for a talented magician like Skeeve, especially with a sassy apprentice and a dumb-but-brawny bodyguard along for the ride. The trouble is, they're sleuthing in another dimension: a strange and chilly realm where day is night and humans are considered monsters. Add a murder rap, a couple of vampires, and the fact that magic doesn't work here, and you've got a trio in real hot water—that is, unless Skeeve finds a different trick up his sleeve!

Svět zlodějů je jedinečný zážitek: výplod obrazotvornosti, svět, kde neplatí zákony, kde vládnou násilí a prohnanost a magie je stále mocná; přivedený na svět současnými špičkovými spisovateli fantasy, kteří navzájem užívají své postavy (ale nelikvidují si je… nebo aspoň ne příliš hojně!)

Ex-IRA assassin Frank Barry now works for the KGB, and British Intelligence wants him eliminated. They persuade Liam Devlin and Martin Brosnan, ex-IRA colleagues of Barry, to do the job. By the author of The Eagle has Landed, and A Prayer for the Dying.

Guido and Nunzio may not be the brightest bodyguards in the world—but they certainly are faithful. When Skeeve "the Great" asks them to join the army of Possiltum, the two thugs volunteer without question. Except...whose side are they on? Queen Hemlock's? The Mob's Fairy Godfather's? Skeeve's? The two baffled bodyguards barely have time to figure it all out—they've been handed government-issue crossbows, armored with leather skirts, and given combat orders by the dreaded drill sergeant Smiley. With war heroes like these...who needs enemies?
