Mythology #1
Mythology 101
Keith Doyle, believer in myths, goodhearted nerd, general busybody, and business major at Midwestern University, discovers to his joy—and horror—that a secret village of pointy-eared, magical little elves are occupying a vacant level of the library building. Their leader, The Master, tutors students to pass difficult courses. Marcy, the girl of Keith’s dreams, is already a member of the class. But the library is in danger of being torn down, thanks to a modernization campaign led by Keith himself. The students of the secret class hate him. Marcy is devastated. It looks as though the elves’ home will be destroyed. Keith and the Little Folk need one another. The only thing that can save Keith’s social life is elven magic. And the only thing that can save the elves is the magic of … free enterprise.

Every bit as delightful and charming as you'd expect.
Keith Doyle knew he was in trouble when he got a failing grade on his sociology paper. "A Study in Human/Alien Interaction" was just too original for his professor. And then Keith makes a startling discovery: there are elves living under the campus library, and he is invited to join their Sociology class ...
I was familiar with Nye's work from her collaborations with Robert Asprin, but this is the first solo work of hers that I've read. It's excellent light fantasy. Doyle is a likeable character, as are all the characters who aren't overt antagonists in this book. The twists and turns of the plot are, perhaps, a little too easily dealt with, but that’s almost as much about the conventions of light fantasy in general as it is this particular example.
All in all, a good, quick read. This is the first book in a series, and I'm inclined to check out more. Recommended!

As soon as I realized that Mythology 101 was a humorous fantasy story set on a Midwestern university campus, I was hooked. The conceit for this novel is that “little people” (you can read these as fey, leprechauns, dwarves, elves, or munchkins (although I presume the proud characters in the novel would resent the latter most of all) have resided in the unused sub-basement of a historic library. The diminutive citizens of this (literally) “underground” culture rarely interact with “Big People” (aka “surface dwellers”) because they feel trivializes, victimized, and persecuted by said “Big People.” Yet, these citizens who lack physical stature have opted to communicate with a few “Big People” who seem to be “open-minded” enough to allow more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in Horatio’s (from Hamlet, not Hornblower) philosophy.
Keith Doyle appears to be either an eccentric conspiracy buff or one of those open-minded people. The question for the hidden society is whether Keith is truly open-minded or one of those guys who would sell them out to a supermarket tabloid or one of those cable television ghost hunter shows. In typical situation-comedy (or perhaps, romantic comedy) style, everything Keith does appears to go wrong. He runs afoul of librarians, campus police, would-be girlfriends, incompetent bureaucrats, the Internal Revenue Service (but I repeat myself), campus student government, campus Greek community, school administration, and union/protection racket bullies.
Now, one of the things that keeps you going in this novel (much like the improbable circumstances in the Lemony Snicket books (and excellent television series)) is the clever and, oft-times fortuitous, manner in which Doyle gets out of one situation, only to be tripped up by or dragged into another. At one point, I found myself wondering if Jody Lyn Nye was planning to keep Doyle reeling or let him out with a happy ending, to always be a victim of misunderstanding or finally get the benefit of a happy revelation. The writing has to be reasonably tight in order to keep one wondering and I’m not going to tell you how this series works in this review.
Once in a while, there is a line which just grabs you. It may well be that I loved this description because it reminds me of how some people worship “big data,” but I have to share it. “His imagination drew up pictures of a spy sect, something to do with the CIA or communism, wielded with the weird religious cult that worshipped IC chips. Men and women wearing gray business suits under sackcloth robes and chanting from mystic flow charts.” (p. 48) Another scene reminded me of some of the scenes in Animal House. The audience knows exactly what is going on, but the protagonist is perpetrating such a marvelous con that it makes one chuckle to the core.
Mythology 101 definitely tweaked my funny-bone (the figurative one, not the so-called one that numbs your whole arm). The characters are interesting, but there is plenty of room to flesh them out further in future efforts. After all, a course designation of 101 largely suggests that a second semester (at least) will be required. So, consider me registered for that course.

“Of all the library stacks, in all the universities, she walks into mine. Oh, what am I doing on the floor? I dropped my next line.”
Popcorn for the brain. Nye probably had more fun writing this than readers will. Hard to take seriously, but suspect that’s the point. Fans missing Terry Pratchett will be pleased.
“Who else would think of something like that?” “Only another deranged mind.” “No, you’re not deranged. A little weird, yes.”
Most clueless protagonist this year. He attends college, so that’s not a stretch. All very tongue-in-cheek. Obvious springboard for more.
“We didn’t know when we were well off. Now we have two like [redacted].” “Now how bad could that be?”

GREAT, GREAT READ!
This book was everything I hoped for when I saw the terrific cover art. I had just read two very good but terribly serious books and I needed something light hearted, easy to read yet still written so that I could loose myself in the story. Oh my gosh! It brought many smiles to my face. I was entertained and feel like I "know" the characters. I am going to miss reading about them. That brings me to the one point that made me contemplate giving four stars. This book isn't in Kindle Unlimited, in fact I couldn't find any of her plethora of books that is. That was the l my disappointing thing about this book. In fact, it's so well written, I was surprised to find out there are three books that follow this one. An author who knows how to end a story yet make follow up books that the reader gets to choose whether to buy or not. One thing that really frosts me is a book that leaves you hanging so you'll have to buy the next one in the series. That's another reason I gave it five stars even though it's not an Unlimited book. I HIGHLY recommend this book to readers of any age. It will entertain you and bring a smile to your face! :) :D
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! :) :D

According to this site, this came out when I was sixteen, though I could have sworn it was earlier. Whenever it was, I re-read it a number of times soon after I got it. I think it shaped my idea of what college would be like; strangely, I'm not sure it was that far off.

Whimsical and fun!
This was a great read with excellent characters! Even if you don't believe, fairies can be anywhere, even under a library.

Wee people!
This book was a very enjoyable fantasy. Or is it real? I really liked the characters. The Masters' personality is exactly the way I 'd picture a leader of a clan of Elves, as a teacher.
Anyone who enjoys fantasy and Elves, of course, will surly like this book as did I.

I enjoyed this book. I didn't know what's in store going into reading it, but it ended up being a delightful story that caused me to think back to my college days living on campus.
The character development was not complicated and conveyed the identities I envisioned they ought to have. In my opinion, the story flowed without many diversions and composed as such to make you recall earlier events as you advanced reading the book. Compiling it this way helped bring the book full circle from start to finish with just enough circumstances at the book's conclusion to allow for additional books/stories to occur.
Mythology 101 was a fun book to read. And for reasons unknown (maybe an incantation), it seemed like I was able to finish it rather quickly (for me), which explains my above assessment. I was not aware that this was a series of books until I completed this one. I can say that the next three books involving the adventures of Holl and Keith Doyle are now on my reading list!

Back in 10th grade (1995-96), I was obsessed with leprechauns for some reason. When I saw this book at Media Play (RIP), I had to have it, despite the mythological creatures not quite being leprechauns.
Anyway, being 15 years old, I found it fun and funny, with a dorky lead character that I could relate to, despite him being in college. I even wrote a book report on this!
All these years later, I flipped through it again and wasn't too impressed, but it's more about the original memories. A fun little read.

Keith is a believer in myths, he is also not doing as well as he could in some of his college courses, enter a secret world where he can brings his grades up and find out that myths can be real. The downside? The elves live in the basement of the library which Keith has managed to arrange to get demolished! He and Holl (one of the elves) need to work together to find a solution to the living problem - oh and if they can sort out Keith's social life at the same time that would help!

A nice charming story, perfect for reading on bus and train, really lovely

A fun read if you don't think too deeply
Fur example, I had trouble getting past the idea of a college business major who didn't seem to have a basic understanding of how to set up a business.

I just was not enjoying my self reading this. I felt there were not enough descriptions of locations. I was confused by the size of the 'little people', and I just was not enjoying it. And that is all I can base my review and recommendation to others. Should you read it? Sure. I got it some years ago from a humble bundle along with a lot of other books. So, if you got it there, might as well. Maybe I am just suffering from depression or something, and I just did not enjoy the book that much. I did not finish it, so maybe it gets better much later, but I doubt it takes a major change part way through.

A walk in a young college student's shoes as he discovers what he's dreamed of for so long - elves! A cute story and interesting. Maybe 3.5 stars as the focus shifts to odd things, prolonging the story and turning the adventure of discovering elves nearly into a chore. Still, creative and a fun enough read.

Fun, easy reading
While certainly dated, this was a fun, easy read. No big issues except for a possible underlying text of acceptance of all people differing from oneself. The bag guy was very bad, and the good guys very good. My main quibble was portraying union people as nasties.

This is a cute fantasy story, but it's not much more than that. I had higher hopes for this since I know the author's work from her collaborations with Robert Lynn Asprin. Unfortunately, it never lived up to those hopes.
There's nothing really wrong with the story, but it drags in places and it just never really pulled me in. Some of the story seems forced, and it just doesn't flow to me.

A so-so fantasy with elves living in the college's library basement and holding tutoring sessions. I was annoyed by the union bad guys doing a shakedown. Rather than blackmail as the way to deal with them, I had hoped the elves would just form their own union.

A young college geek discovers little gnomes living under the university library. A light-hearted, quick read, not without some nice touches, but mostly rather ordinary.

Humorous fantasy that I have read several times before. First book of (3?) but the rest of them are not as much fun.

This was a charming story and a fun read. Kieth seems to get himself in trouble just trying to do good for his friends. The book description is pretty spot on.

Little people
Let's just pass by the fact that Jody lives in the northwest suburbs of Chicago since I grew up in Chicago and the last place I lived was in the northwest suburbs. Needless to say I never got to meet them. That being said I believe this is the only book of hers that I have read that didn't involve a collaboration with another author. I've always enjoyed the works that she's been part of and I am a big fan of Robert Asprin. I'm pretty sure this is the only one of her personal works that I have read so far and I am hooked. This is the style of writing that I have always enjoyed reading.
It was a great introduction to a series of books that I am looking forward to. Exploring the concept of 'Elves' or such little people from mythology wrapped into a story showing them existing in the real world is a wonderful thing. I felt that she did a masterful job of incorporating them and giving us a story filled with mystery and wonder. The story explores some interesting relationships and gives you a feel for college life along the way.
Definitely worth reading by anyone especially if you enjoy good fantasy.

A very silly book, with heart.
Keith Doyle, student at Midwestern University, is flunking Sociology...until he meets the Little People. They've been hiding in the eigth sub-basement of the University's library for a long time, having immigrated from ... well, somewhere in Europe. And their leader teaches classes; this year he's teaching Sociology. Keith is accepted into the class, and begins to befriend the elves. The fly in the ointment is that Keith's nemesis, a Phys. Ed. major named Carl, is also in the class.
Unfortunately, the library is slated for demolition. Worse, Keith advocated for it in the Student Government. The elves will either be discovered, or made homeless. Keith has a plan, though, to save them. It will involve risk for both Keith and the elves, but just maybe he can pull it off...
Written in a very plain style, _Mythology 101_ covers a year in the story of Keith and the elves. I'm not rushing to read the other books in this series, but I'll probably get to it someday.

Keith Emerson Doyle couldn't understand why his Sociology Professor didn't like him. He had just received back his latest paper - A STUDY IN HUMAN/ALIEN INTERACTION - only to be astounded to see a big, red F across the front of the paper. Little did he know that paper was going to introduce him to a world that he could only dream of, friends he could never imagine, and change his life in ways he would never have considered.
Jody Lynn Nye, in one of her first full-length novels, creates a world of characters rich in emotion and personality and throws them into a story that will have them confronting the one thing many members of our society struggle with - fear and acceptance of the new and unknown - revealing those who will fail and those that will soar above the rest.
A great read for those who are wanting to be introduced to a great author.

I bought this years ago and never went in with the rest of the series. I'm going through a phase where I'm trying to finish the series that I never completed and this book came up on my list. Started listening to it again on audible and I just couldn't finish. The voice actors done great things for other books but this was such a slow burn at such a low level of tension that I think I just have grown out of it.
I recognize it is a 4Runner of urban fantasy and I've liked some of the other stuff the author has done but this one just seemed like a good starter fantasy novel maybe for someone in junior high or high school. That was more than 30 years ago for me. I'm not going to finish the series.

There are times when I read a book that I'm not sure if my reaction is due to how I'm feeling at the time I read it, that I'm not actually into that genre anymore, or if it's just not that good of a book. I really can't see the problem being the latter due to Ms. Nye's long history of good writing, as I've enjoyed many of her previous books. This story just didn't capture me though. The protagonist came across as cocky and arrogant rather than charming and quirky to me which was off putting. The interactions with the "elves" felt odd and had almost a storybook quality to them. The setting of a college felt more like a cardboard façade of a college rather than anything substantive.
December 28, 2016
Although the behavior of the students at the college seemed from a much earlier time--including how they interacted with technology or attended to their studies and used the library, I was drawn to this tale of a colony of elven folk living in a hidden village accessed through the bowels of a library. Because they are good natured folk, they also include selected students from the college into their special secret study groups. This is how our protagonist finds a path to discover them, but this also leads to the endangerment of their home and way of life.

Fun with the little people of Illinois
Keith Doyle has been fascinated with stories of leprechauns, elves, and such. Imagine his delight when his pursuit of a coed leads him to a study group of humans and little people with pointy ears (not fond of labels) meeting in the lowest stack level of his university library. Trouble ensues as Keith tries to help the community of elves (whatever) find safety and even prosperity, whether they want it or not. This is the first of a four book series, so prepare to be hooked.

When this book started , it reminded me of a Xanth novel. Which is about as high of praise as I can heap on someone.
Then it quickly devolved into a book that was mostly about the IRS and Union goons. Not exactly the fun quirky read I was expecting.
If you look past that, it is a story about a college boy trying his best to help his new elf friends survive on their own. He helps them make money and find a new home. Along the way he makes some friends, and gets a girlfriend who appreciates his strange ways.
Maybe it's more Disney family movie than I was expecting.
