A German shepherd mix curled up in a chair with the book, "Carl's Doomsday Device" by Matt Dinniman resting on the dog's hindquarters.

Silly gags abound but questions are building faster than goblins on meth

Carl's Doomsday Scenario by Matt Dinniman

January 5, 2025 by Dome'Loki Leave a Comment

You know how sometimes the next book in the series isn’t as good as the one before it? Carl’s Doomsday Device does not fit in that category.  It continues to be uproariously fun ala Carl having to remove all magic items and running around naked because even his boxers are magic.  However, the questions continue to build.  Why are some NPCs aware and others not?  How mentally stable are the previous crawlers that become NPCs? What is going on in the broader universe that is impacting […]

The Dungeon Anarchist's Cookbook by Matt Dinniman

January 3, 2025 by NatalieH 4 Comments

I was travelling visiting family over the holidays and found that I didn’t bring enough physical books to occupy myself with while away from home. I ended up searching through my Kindle for something new to read, and quickly devoured the first three books in Matt Dinniman’s Dungeon Crawler Carl series, consisting of Dungeon Crawler Carl, Carl’s Doomsday Scenario, and The Dungeon Anarchist’s Cookbook. The plot is sort of a mix of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and The Hunger Games. One evening in […]

The book, "Dungeon Crawler Carl" lying down in front of a flight of 4 small cider glasses full of colorful cider.

Do you need an adventure filled with laughter and some pathos? Do I have the book for you!

Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman

My husband received  Dungeon Crawler Carl in our family Winter Solstice book exchange.  From the moment he started the book, he was chuckling, and sometimes outright cackling, every several pages.  Before finishing he insisted it be my next read.  Folks, this book is laugh out loud  funny.  Do you like fantasy, adventure, video games, Dungeons and Dragons, The Hunger Games, Running Man or cats?  Does a reference to the anime/manga/movie Battle Royale peak your interest? Are you intrigued by the idea of an AI with a foot […]
