A awesomely fun book! I highly recommend this very funny series to everyone! Great and quick read!
This is #6 in Asprin's Myth Adventures series. Lots of fun and word play.
From back cover: Skeeve's dealt himself a fine mess of trouble this time. First he bluffs his way into a high-stakes game of dragon poker and, by some miracle, wins. Then, still flush with luck, Skeeve heads straight for the king of dragon poker, the Sen-Sen Ante Kid. And with a pot of half a million, there'd better not be any myth-deals.
But even if Skeeve can hold his own in a high-stakes game, there's still Markie. Left as a pint-sized IOU by a player who went broke, she conjures a house full of trouble every time she tries to cast a spell. And to top it off, jealous magicians have hired the notorious assassin, The Axe, to cut more than the deck . . .

An excellent addition to the Myth-Inc series.
Another wonderful book, again with the laughing
It's been a while since I first read this book, so I had forgotten the ending. It's pretty funny.
