Differently Morphous, the Latest and Greatest Absurd Tale from the Mind of Yahtzee Croshaw

Posted on by

After centuries of successfully keeping magic out of the public eye, the Ministry of Occultism faces new challenges in the age of social media, government scrutiny, public relations, and political correctness. The fact that otherworldly gelatinous creatures are infesting the English countryside while a magical serial killer is on the loose isn’t making their job any easier. On the job are the Ministry’s top agents: a junior operative with a photographic memory (and not much else), a couple of overgrown schoolboys with godlike powers, and a demonstrably insane magician.

Differently Morphous is the latest and greatest tale to emerge from the mind of writer (and demonstrably insane magician) Yahtzee Croshaw and is being published by Dark Horse Books.

Differently Morphous TPB goes on sale May 20, 2019, and is available for pre-order. This demented and delightful prose novel retails for only $12.99!

Dark Horse Delivers Double Yahtzee

Posted on by

Yahtzee Croshaw is a master of parody, satire, and dark humor, and now Dark Horse is thrilled to announce new editions of his first and second prose novels Mogworld and Jam, designed to accompany your copy of Will Save the Galaxy for Food on your bookshelf!

In Mogworld, a world full of video game heroes, Jim couldn’t be less interested in saving the day. Particularly since he’s been dead for sixty years. When a renegade necromancer wrenches him from eternal slumber and into a world gone terribly, bizarrely wrong, all Jim wants is to find a way to die properly, once and for all.

And in Jam, prepare for an apocalypse no one could have predicted! Fire, flood, or nuclear fallout may be on your typical end of times menu, but no one expected the end to be quite so sticky… or strawberry-scented.

Mogworld TPB and Jam TPB go on sale May 16, 2018.
