A Dungeons & Dragons-style dungeon crawl with the wit and imagination of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Will be sure to get you out of a reading slump as it's VERY addicting!

Did we really just start a meth war between the goblins and the llamas?

The best book I've read in a long time. I had no prior knowledge of this book and at first I thought the premise might be a bit cheesy, but it was easy to overlook since it was so fast and fun. If you like quirky snide narration like Hitchiker's Guide or Percy Jackson then this is for you. I'm very excited to find out what happens next.

It was surprisingly hard for me to get into this at first, but once the action started rolling, I was into it. I'm looking forward to the next installment!

This book is lots of fun! It started out trending a little “Masculine Author”, y’know the kind… but it was a brief blip in an otherwise very amusing book. I loved the potshots taken at popular gamer culture, especially as someone who is Terminally Online™️ and into D&D, MTG, video games, etc 🫡 I would rate this higher if it was a little less formulaic and repetitive, and used the word “plummeted” less. But none of those things detract from my enjoyment of the book at all! They’re just things that keep me from rating it higher - but I can’t wait to read the next one!! I just have to wait until it even appears at ALL on Libby let alone being able to put a hold on it!

That was an absolute blast to read! Donut and Carl are a great combo, I just couldn't put it down.
