Robert Asprin was the author or co-author of the MythAdventures and Phule's Company series of SF/fantasy novels, and was the editor of the Thieves' World series.
 
The Myth books were great, and I read the Thieves' World series so often as a kid that my copies fell apart.
 
Read all his stuff...tried reading it again recently but found that stuff I thought was GREAT as a kid didnt "do it for me" as an adult any longer. It was a strange/sad/educational experience.
 
RIP

I read alot of the Myth series and loved his Phule series as well.
 
One of my favorite authors... he shall be missed. :asian:

I met the man at his house. He was a very nice man. He was even trying to help me out with being a guest at local convention.

I enjoyed his works and re-read them all the time.

My warmest regards goes out to his family, friends, and fans.

All I can say is Thank you Robert for sharing with us.
