Audiobook narrated by the author.
Following on from the events of Differently Morphous, DEDA faces new challenges of magic in the modern world including fakes, faith healers and possible vampirism.
- The characters already established in Differently Morphous underwent various character development, some good, some bad. Thankfully Doctor Diablerie was ever present and ever hilarious.
- The narration by the author was excellent and definitely added to the sarcastic tone of the book.
- I felt the plot was less engaging than the first book, though still enjoyable. Existentially Challenged suffers a little from sequel syndrome where it is having to follow on from a great first novel and also set up for the next book and so the content does suffer a little.
A worthy and fun sequel and fans of the first book will enjoy seeing the politically correct and ironic exploits of the DEDA team as they continue to navigate modern magic and politics.
