The book you describe sounds an awful lot like "Beyond the Blue Event
Horizon" by Pohl. It is the second book about the HEECHEE - more
precisely about what happens when humans find HEECHEE artifacts which
include interstellar starships and which the humans don't really
understand. The part about the "hero" being a bumbler and the part about
the hot water limitation are not  (as I remember) part of this story,
but the rest of your description sounds too close to be anything else
that I am familiar with.

Here is my question : Are there any other books by Robert Lynn Aspirin
in the same Milleux as "Another Fine Myth"? This milleux is NOT the
Thieve's world stuff (Of which another book is scheduled to come out in
the next couple of months) but I have heard that there are some other
books about this milleux. I enjoyed AFM but can't find any others. Can
someone give me a hand ?? ((I KNOW this is more Fantasy than SF but
....))
