Synopsis
Myth-ing Persons is the fifth novel in the Myth Adventures series, again following the apprentice magician Skeeve and his mentor Aahz. The story centers on a job in which the pair are asked to help recover restitution from a group of con artists, a seemingly straightforward assignment that Skeeve and Aahz take on without first confirming exactly how much money is actually involved. That oversight steadily complicates what should have been a minor errand, pulling the two dimension-hopping partners into a more dangerous and convoluted adventure than either anticipated, in keeping with the series' pattern of turning small jobs into elaborate schemes.
