The Angry GM’s first book is out! Game Angry: How to RPG the Angry Way! Smart, talented, skilled GMs read The Angry GM’s book. Don’t be one of those OTHER GMs. Sorry for the ad. There’s more articles coming soon. But I have to plug my book. The Angry Marketing Department insisted.
For ten years, The Angry GM has been dispensing the best damned gaming advice ever written and sharing it on this very website. But what if you’re on an airplane and you’re not allowed to have your phone turned on? What if you’re stuck in a mountain lake cabin at a family reunion and there’s no WiFi? What if your tablet is dead? What if your computer caught fire? What if a garbage truck knocked down the power pole outside your house and you have no electricity? What then?
Don’t worry! The Angry GM has you covered. Thanks to a partnership with Third Act Publishing, all of his best advice is available in book form. A real book. That he killed an actual tree to make. Just for you. Read it anywhere. Anytime. Even while pooping.
And it makes a great gift too. Is there someone in your life you want to introduce to the world of RPGs but don’t want to actually run a game for? Do you want to convince one of your players to step up and take over so you can have a freaking break? Are you trying to find a subtle way of telling your GM that they suck? Well, buy them this book.
Get the Book
Buy Game Angry: How to RPG the Angry Way from Third Act Publishing (Print or PDF)
Buy Game Angry: How to RPG the Angry Way from Drive Thru RPG (PDF/EPUB/MOBI)
Just bought the pdf – great work!
I don’t see any link to the epub version. Can’t stand pdfs.
You can purchase the EPUB and MOBI formats at the Drive-Thru RPG link. I previously included incorrect information stating that the PDF verison on Third Act’s site included the EPUB and MOBI format.
Thank you.
@Bluespade If you purchased the PDF format because of the faulty information I provided above – which I have now corrected to avoid any other mistakes – please contact me at TheAngryGameMaster@gmail.com . I will make sure you get the formats you are missing.

Shut up and take my gp!
Just bought the paper version. I know it will be worth every penny.
Congratulations, Angry!
Astounding Ad by the way – I’m sure you already knew that, but still, well done.
Finally i was able to get one. I wanted to back it during the kickstarter campaign, but since i dont have a credit card i had to wait until there was another payment method like PayPal.
Congratulations to your success with this book!
Great news! I have been wanting to get this since I discovered I missed the kickstarter! I would like to get a physical copy but I live in Europe. Is there any place where I can find whether it will be delivered internationally and, if so, what will be the costs?
We ship internationally. Shipping Costs are calculated at checkout.
Thank you!
Congratulations. I hope it is as gratifying as I imagine to have your book in for-real print and everything.
A friend of mine just bought your book, he said only the PDF file was availible for download, no epub file.
Please have your friend contact me at TheAngryGameMaster@gmail.com . I gave incorrect information by accident and I am sorry. I’ll make sure he gets the other formats.

And because Angry is Angry, I can’t be entirely sure if it’s a honest mistake or sarcasm 😀
Also, as K9ine said, they only send you PDF. At least if you buy from Third Act site, don’t know about RPGNow.
The Drive Thru RPG link – which I’ve now included – does include the MOBI and EPUB formats. Please contact me at TheAngryGameMaster@gmail.com and I’ll make sure you get the additional formats if you purchased the PDF because of what I said.
Finished the first read – really great work, it’s good to have all this info in one place.
Hey I keep my dice in a Crown Royal bag! Other than that, awesome book 🙂
I got my book in the mail today, I’m looking forward to spending the night perusing your insights and becoming the best *&^%! DM, next to you of course.
Congratulations! Been following the site for years and it was what pushed me to start DMing, which then led to some of my friends playing, then turning them into DMs, which got their friends into playing…
Thanks for causing a ripple effect of gaming in my area and best of luck going forward!
I’m over in Japan, so the digital format is super appreciated.
Started reading through it. The style between your articles and this book is notable. I like reading your articles because they are generally safe for work since they are glorious walls of text. However, this book covers a lot of topics much more concisely and quickly than in your articles. For someone interested in your ideas, but lacking time to read a lot of articles, this is great. It’s also a good refresher for people who have read through your stuff. For someone looking to kill a dead hour at work, there are too many nice pictures, the font is too large, and the Mimic on the side of the page draws too much attention. Haha, all good things for a book. I guess I should get back to work.
Looking forward to future articles and the Angry RPG.
Such a common problem.
“Yeah, this artwork sure is nice to look at and all, but it makes it super obvious that I’m not working.”
There should be a website that allows you to browse the internet without loading any pictures or formatting. 🙂
I also want to say I’m very impressed at your transparency and openness through the entire process of this release. It’s refreshing to see you so committed to your fans and followers, especially in a time of pre-release, DLC and extra content money grabs. It’s unfortunate you’ve had so many stumbling blocks and hurdles to maneuver, but it seems you’ve taken them with grace and humility. Thank you very much for the work you’ve done and the time you’ve invested.
P.S. I finished my first read of the book, it was a wonderful read and much of it will go into how I approach teaching new DMs.
P.P.S. I will also be mentioning something about it on my stream, just because I want to share something I really like!
Just wondering if anyone outside of the US got their physical copies yet? I have no idea how long these things typically take to get across the ocean.
I want my first read to be the actual BOOK rather than the digital version, so look forward to getting it on my doormat!
Received the book via Kickstarter. Now, where can I buy time, peace, and quiet to read it?
I mean, if you’re willing to spend money on it, you could quit your job and go hang out in the woods or something? 😛
Ewww, I might get the book dirty that way! 🙂
Book a hotel?
If alone-time was cheap, everyone would be doing it. 😛
