Who else is looking forward to it? I really enjoyed Mogworld, so reading a book from his narrative stance of an apocalypse with jam in it certainly seems like it'll be a fun thrill ride.

...I wonder if I'll also find myself doing the same thing I did with Mogworld where every single word, line and character voice was read in my mind by Yahtzee himself (actually doing different voices and tones for different characters...)

I'm pretty excited for it though.

I like to think of Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw as the world's replacement for Douglas Adams, who was the world's replacement for Sam Clemens. Which may be either blasphemous to the "42" fanbois or blasphemous to those who think Douglas Adams was blasphemous enough for one century, thank you. But, however, if you stop to think, I might not be uttering praise at all, considering that Douglas Adams could also be considered to be the greatest proponent of existentialist despair since Alastair Crowley. Or Heavy Metal magazine. Whichever gives you the biggest chubby.

Im keen to read it, quite enjoyed Mogworld though I felt the ending was a bit meh. Just kind of spread out, like he'd been having loads of fun writing it then realised it was time to end it so kind of hurriedly tied up all the loose ends.

Didnt even know he had another one coming out though, thank you op for the heads up!

Wasn't aware there was another one coming out.

I still have to read Mogworld, to be quite honest. So I'll do that at some point before reading this one.

I'll probably forget about both of them and then never reason either. But you didn't hear that from me.

O.O Shun the unbeliever! Shun! Shun! ;D

Mogworld was great. I have faith that Yatzee will infuse Jam with just as much awesome.
