Dark Horse Comics to publish Yahtzee Croshaw’s next book, Jam

Yahtzee Croshaw is releasing Jam, his second work of fiction and the sequel to Mogworld, on October 10.

Croshaw, the host of The Escapist’s "Zero Punctuation" review show, published his first book in 2010. Mogworld is now available for both Barnes & Noble's Nook and Sony's Kobo Vox e-readers.

“You asked for it — by Christ have you been asking for it — and it's finally here, the Mogworld eBook” Croshaw said. “Now I just have to stop procrastinating on the audiobook version.”

The follow-up, Jam, is a "dark comedy" that pits a group of twenty-something-year-olds against a twist on the the apocalyptic predictions of the Mayans.

The announcement did not mention whether Mogworld would be made available for other e-readers, such as Amazon's Kindle. We've reached out to Dark Horse for comment. Jam is coming to print and unspecified digital platforms.
