Space travel just isn't what it used to be. With the invention of quantum teleportation, space heroes aren't needed anymore. When one particularly unlucky ex-adventurer masquerades as famous pilot and hate figure Jacques McKeown, he's sucked into an ever-deepening corporate and political intrigue. Between space pirates, adorable deadly creatures, and a missing fortune in royalties, saving the universe was never this difficult!

Story
A magical serial killer is on the loose, and gelatinous, otherworldly creatures are infesting the English countryside. Which is making life for the Ministry of Occultism difficult, because magic is supposed to be their best kept secret. After centuries in the shadows, the Ministry is forced to unmask, exposing the country's magical history - and magical citizens - to a brave new world of social media, government scrutiny, and public relations.

Story
In a world full to bursting with would-be heroes, Jim couldn't be less interested in saving the day. His fireballs fizzle. He's awfully grumpy. Plus, he's been dead for about 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. On his side, he's got a few shambling corpses, an inept thief, and a powerful death wish. But he's up against tough odds....

We were prepared for an earthquake. We had a flood plan in place. We could even have dealt with zombies. Probably. But no one expected the end to be quite so... sticky... or strawberry scented.

Story
When an experiment to study quantum uncertainty goes spectacularly wrong, physics student Bill Rustad and his friends find that they have accidentally created an inter-dimensional portal. They connect to Outland - an alternate Earth with identical geology, but where humans never evolved. The group races to establish control of the portal before the government, the military, or evildoers can take it away. Then everything changes when the Yellowstone supervolcano erupts in an explosion large enough to destroy civilization and kill half the planet.

Two centuries ago, the Imperium of Man and the upstart Tau Empire fought to a standstill in the Damocles Gulf. Now, as the 41st millennium draws to a close, the tau have returned. As the world of Agrellan falls under attack, the White Scars and Raven Guard rush to its defence, but with the skilled Commander Shadowsun leading the alien forces, the Space Marines and their allies are hard pressed. Kor'sarro Khan, Huntmaster of the White Scars, swears that he will win the day in the most direct way possible – by taking Shadowsun's head.

Publisher's Summary
With magic declassified in the UK, the fake psychics and fraudulent healers are running amok, and it's up to the Department of Extradimensional Affairs' newly appointed Skepticism Officers to crack down. But when they set their sights on Modern Miracle, a highly suspicious and fast-growing faith healing cult with remarkably good social media presence, even their skepticism is put to the test.
Is Modern Miracle on the level? Is Miracle Meg’s healing magic real? Why do dead bodies keep showing up on their doorstep? And just what is Miracle Dad's preferred flavour of crisp?
In Existentially Challenged, the sequel to Differently Morphous, the men and women of the Department of Extradimensional Affairs continue their struggle to uncover the motives of the Ancients under the ever-present threat of death, insanity, and sensitivity training.

What a hoot!
Don't let the subject matter, strange but interesting characters, creative narration and magical alterniverse fool you. At its core this is still a very well structured mystery with lots of twists and turns to keep you fully engaged. I loved every second of this book. Despite some negative reviews, for what it's worth, I think the narration is stellar. Yahtzee Croshaw does a superb job breathing life into his own creation which I think is a double treat for surely this is what he heard for his characters as he was creating them. I was left absolutely wanting follow up for this wonderful world Croshaw has created. The last time I felt this was after reading my first Terry Pratchett. Dive in, it's worth a listen.

Yahtzee needs to hire a vocal coach
story is amazing. it's exactly the kind of humorous and thoughtful writing you can expect from Yahtzee Croshaw.
But the voice performance is a little weak and inconsistent at times with few variance in the voices used to portray different characters. sometimes different characters will share a voice or accent halfway through a sentence because Yahtzee can't switch fast enough or completely enough.
apart from that it's a great listen.

good sequal
Victor's story was fun to listen to considering the Arch-villain to lovers tropes that Yahtzee has mentioned in another series.

great audiobook
Loved it, loved the narration too. This along with Differently Morphous are my favourites by Croshaw, after Mogworld. I hope he writes more in this series.

Funny, clever and fun.
I really enjoyed this. I was sad when it ended. I look forward to more in the Series if they are written (and performed).

Book 3 please!
I came back for a second go round with these two DEDA books, and now I’m wishing there were more. MOAR!!! Any plans on the next instalment Yahtzee? I know writing books is a special kind of torture, but setting up so many loose ends then leaving us hanging is just cruel. You can’t do that to us all!

Great sequel to my favorite from the Author
Love Yahtzee's work! Great development and more spotlight for secondary characters. Seeing the other side to certain characters was great. When book three?
