The apocalypse will be televised! Welcome to the first book in the wildly popular and addictive New York Times bestselling 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.
I was a litRPG skeptic, but this was a lot of fun. It’s not overly complex but the characters are well drawn so it’s fun to spend time with them. There isn’t much of a story arc in this fist one, it’s more picaresque in structure (befitting the concept)
Eine actionreiche Geschichte mit vielen Klischees, die aber sehr passend sind. Ein Dungeon Crawl für ein galaktisches Publikum als Reality-TV Serie mit bunten Charakteren und vielen Hommagen an die Vorlagen. Nichts, was einen in den Bann zieht, aber als Hörbuch ausgezeichnet für lange Autofahrten, da man nie wirklich etwas verpasst.
This is my first time reading/listening to a "GameLit". Audiobook voices and everything is really top notch!! You can definitely hear the characters and I am so invested in the story, world and their crawl! Great world building. I was first thrown off with Carl's voice because I could not imagine a 27 year old speaking that deeply. However, its a great voice and I really got used to it. I now have all the books so far on audiobook.
