Summary
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.
Yahtzee Croshaw (Mogworld, Zero Punctuation Reviews) returns to print with a follow-up to his smash-hit debut: Jam, a dark comedy about the one apocalypse no one predicted.

Perfect rendition of the book
The book was a scary example of what humanity might actually do faced with an apocalypse…

Another great story from Yahtzee
A great take on the apocalypse from a comedic viewpoint. The narrative is well balanced and the performance is very well done.

Jam, apocalypse and Spiders
The writing is hilarious, I've read this before but hearing the author narrate it brings it to life even more.

Loved it!
I just love Crowshaw, he always makes me laugh out loud and this book was no different. I just wish I hadn’t listened to them all. I think I will have to start them all again.

A good earworm to pass long journey
As always impeccable delivery by Yahtzee (I adjust speed to 1.05 and that just makes us a bit smoother IMHO).
Story wasn't as strong as the Jaques McKeown or Mogworld books (I did enjoy the references to the latter). Unfair to say all the characters were underdeveloped as some good 'everyman almost hero' and 'Apocalypse Now' style descent into madness arcs worked for me.
However I don't know if the themes of futility and meaningless deaths really fitted into the narrative and the ending was rather unsatisfactory (again IMHO).
In conclusion; to put it into the world of Yahzee and Escapist, this was my FF8, some excellent set pieces, quite nicely rendered mechanics but let down by jarring plot points and only finished it out of obligation, won't replay unlike other bodies of work in the unconnected series 6.25/10

Sweet smelling death
Another great yarn from Mr Croshaw. If you've listened and liked any of his other books, then this won't disappoint.

Another enjoyable Yahtzee novel
It’s not perfect but there are great characters and a lot of tension. His reading is remarkable, as expected.
