Dungeon Crawler Carl

By Matt Dinniman

Book Overview

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - The apocalypse will be televised Welcome to the first book in the wildly popular and addictive Dungeon Crawler Carl series--now with bonus material exclusive to this print edition.

You know what's worse than breaking up with your girlfriend? Being stuck with her prize-winning show cat. And you know what's worse than that? An alien invasion, the destruction of all man-made structures on Earth, and the systematic exploitation of all the survivors for a sadistic intergalactic game show. That's what.

Join Coast Guard vet Carl and his ex-girlfriend's cat, Princess Donut, as they try to survive the end of the world--or just get to the next level--in a video game-like, trap-filled fantasy dungeon. A dungeon that's actually the set of a reality television show with countless viewers across the galaxy. Exploding goblins. Magical potions. Deadly, drug-dealing llamas. This ain't your ordinary game show.

Welcome, Crawler. Welcome to the Dungeon. Survival is optional. Keeping the viewers entertained is not.

Includes part one of the exclusive bonus story "Backstage at the Pineapple Cabaret."

So Addictive!

I will admit, I stayed away from this series at first because I was not a fan of the covers so much. When this series got a redo of the cover and my library actually got it, I knew I had to try and see what this about. And I was absolutely blown away! Carl and Princess Donut are the best team ever and I love how they are willing to do anything to stay together and help each other out in this crazy time of aliens who smooshed the structures on Earth and built a crazy dungeon under the surface for those lucky (or unlucky?) to have taken the pathways down. Be warned, this is highly addictive, a fast read because it is so hard to put down, and you will fall in love with Carl and Princess Donut!

Long live Donut!

Very fun read, action packed, dark humor, love Donut and Carl's relationship.

My favorite book series.

I bought them on Amazon when they were released but if you can get a deal on them thats cool also. Some people recommended the audio books I think the print is better.

Dungeon Crawler Carl

I got this book for a friend and it's hard to shop for him. He raved about how great the book was, it was soooo great he couldn't put it down and tried to read all thru the night. Now his birthday is coming and I know exactly what to get him, the series!
