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.

Hopefully not the last in this series
I don't really want to write anything here, that could give things away. More of the same from the first book, but with a stronger mystery that surpasses the book before. Great dialogue and characters come back for another unique look at lovecraftian horror. Honestly just give it a go.

My favourite Humour author since Pratchett
Loved it! The story manages to be engaging while parodying itself and other media! It's also a great Urban Fantasy in it's own right. I cannot wait for the next one. I love the cast of lovable idiots kept in check by two competent Administrators with godlike patience

extremely entertaining
loved the plot, characters and the narrator/author is excellent. The descriptions make you laugh and at times are so good you rewind just to hear them again.

Clever, witty and fun
An easy, morish read that’s witty and has a nice twist on a well trodden genre. Def recommended.

Truly brilliant
This is one of the only books in recent memory which has actually made me laugh out loud. It was well written, well narrated and just well done in every aspect.
The plot is great, I didn't work out the mysteries early and it surprised me pleasantly throughout. There was nothing convoluted and no obvious plot holes. I think, considering the author wrote this around doing a full time job, other authors should learn from him.
Many of the characters carry over from Differently Morphous which in hindsight I should have perhaps re-listened to as a refresher before starting this. I still felt like they were well written and most of them became more fleshed out throughout although some were definitely sidelined a bit.
The prose was great. Funny lines scattered amongst a tense and thrilling narrative. The authors signature similes were superlative and enjoyable.
Similarly, the narration was really good. You can tell the characters apart easily and I found this a pleasure to listen to. I was through the whole thing in a few days.
Overall, buy this book! If you liked the first then you won't regret it.
