Dungeon Crawler Carl

An entertaining read, with heart, despite the darkness and violence.

At first I thought it was too on the nose and crude in its humor, but it is very charming and fun in the end. Not a groundbreaking book but very enjoyable.

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.
