Okay, one big consolidated reply to everything:

Firstly...

Violent humor, my favorite kind of humor.

Plus others... but this post's getting a bit long now.

Thanks hugely for saying that. When I wrote up the first chapter I pretty quickly came up with the idea that it could be used as a neat and free way of showcasing the novel. Then, as always happens when I write things, I had the bit of crisis of confidence. Anyhow, it's really good for my ego to hear nice things said about it. My inner meerkat is now sniffing the air, rather than hiding its head in its paws.

I haven't tried it, but it should be possible. I guess it will be easier with an ISBN, so here it is:

978-1-906402-01-3

And while I'm here, here are some other quotes that I've got:
"Game Night had me cackling from first page to last at the inept adventurers and the all-too-familiar players controlling them. Spare a thought for the GM too, potions and magic rings will never be viewed the same way again." [Link]
Gregor Hutton, author of Best Friends

"I issued more laughs from reading Game Night than I do from an average Pratchett novel... Clash of The Titans meets Discworld, neatly blended with a little Red Dwarfism." [Link]
Sin, Critical Miss Forums

"Have to say, just finished reading it and enjoyed it immensely – shades of far too many games I've GM'd waving from the background..." [Link]
Luddism

"I loved the book. As usual, your sense of humor was spot on." [Link]
Herald, Critical Miss Forums
