1. Robert Asprin: Another Fine Myth


2. Robert Asprin: Myth Conceptions (1980)

...wherein Skeeve lands a job as court magician for the King of Possiltum. Very soon he and Aahz find out that their first task is to stop the huge army about to invade Possiltum, and whether or not they succeed their lives are on the line. But things are not always as hopeless as they seem — sometimes they are even worse.

Still funny and fluffy fantasy. I rather liked the way Asprin hints, without saying it in so many words, that using magic is largely a question of psychology — not unlike Pratchett's witches, in other words.
