Critical Failures

By Robert Bevan

Swords. Sorcery. Dick Jokes.

Truly do the gods smile upon you, dear adventurer, for you are about to take your first step into the world of Caverns & Creatures.

Join Tim, Dave, Julian, and Cooper as they are thrown into a hostile fantasy world filled with magic and monsters, and ruled over by a cruel and sadistic game master who taunts and harasses them while he sits back and eats their fried chicken.

Having taken on the bodies of their fantasy characters, Tim and the others are forced to discover the answers to two questions that every underachieving lowlife who's ever rolled a d20 has asked themselves at least once.

What if you and your friends got to live the game for real?What if you and your friends were assholes?

Would you have what it takes to survive? The strength? The wisdom? The...charisma?

Do you have the dice in your sack?

Customer Reviews

Take 4 college-age guys, who are kind of generally a**holes to one degree or another, add a Dungeons and Dragons-esque tabletop RPG, a new DM who takes the game far too seriously, and a set of magic dice, and you have a recipie for raunchy humor and misadventures of the highest order. One of the better additions to the developing sub-genre of fantasy in which people from our world are trapped in a world that resembles and functions like, or -is-, an MMORPG that I've seen in recent years. R. A. Salvatore's work with the "Forgotten Realms" novels it isn't, but enjoyable and bringing enough originality to the concept that I look forward eagerly to the next book.
