How Matt Dinniman’s ‘Dungeon Crawler Carl’ Became a Blockbuster
Interesting piece on the surprise hit book series about a human in an alien reality show has really taken off with hardcore fans to boot. Wondering who has read this and who enjoys it?
This was my favorite series this year. Had a bad breakup and the laughs really helped

Keep hearing about this book.
Is it just a fun read, the current fad, or is there something lasting about it. Is it “The Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy” of this era ? Because that is the vibe I am getting.

Absolutely addicting book series. Started book 1 in early October and finished book 7 last week and I’m super bummed I have to wait until June for book 8. Funny, irreverent roller coaster of fun and mayhem. Never takes itself seriously even when it gets to the edge of darkness. I cannot recommend it enough!

It’s fantastic. Very funny. I HIGHLY recommend the audio books; the narrator is next level.

I legit haven’t read a book since I was forced to in college (15 years ago). A co-worker recommended this to me because she thought I would like it. I did. It actually got me back into reading. I can’t wait for book 8.

I’ve been loving the audiobooks. Amazing narration and production value. The books themselves have a breakneck pace, lovable characters, and balance action and political intrigue in equal measure.
Also they just keep getting better. The first few we’re good, but then books 5 and 7 were simply some of the best fantasy I’ve ever read/listened to.
Very fun. It’s not going to redefine a genre or be taught in schools, but if you like action forward sci-fi and fantasy it’s the most fun you’ll have in ages.
