Still a really fun ride, but also a bit less more going on than the previous book in terms of character development, B plot, and the established themes. There is some nice closure for something that’s continued for a while and I feel like it was a slightly more funny. I actually spat water myself at one point while listening.
If anything the cliffhanger develops more for the ongoing B plots than the main story. There’s bubble worlds that force players to work together and it all goes to crap in various ways. It all feels pretty straightforward and more of the same, but that’s not a bad thing. I’m still interested in what happens next. It’s an action flick you put on when you want entertainment, that kind of thing.
Also, the same editing is being deployed as the last book; Carl’s internal voice, because it’s first person, is just… strange. It’s the Queens English with absolute properness, but when he speaks—which is often—it’s complete blue collar, raunchy, sailor on deck. It just makes no sense. It feels like auto correct or a really heavy handed editor that can’t abide incorrect grammar, despite perspective. It really bothers me.

Great, really enjoying the season. However, I think this probably could’ve been about a hundred pages shorter. Still really enjoyable. Curious to see how the remaining books go, considering they’re even longer. I hope it’s not too much filler.

This series is taking over my life! I loved how Carl finally got to draw blood against the system in this one. Also a big fan of the fight with Quan Ch.
I'm taking away .5 ⭐️becauseI'm stressed about what's going to happen to poor Gravy Boat.

NEW ACHIEVEMENT: YOU'VE FOUND A NEW FAVORITE BOOK IN THIS SERIES!
.
The Dungeon Crawler Carl series truly has me in a chokehold that I would never want to escape from, unlike Carl 🤣🤣 Okay, but seriously! This book is top 2 behind the first book. The characters development, more information about the outer political systems, and giant "Fuck You" to The Man, and of course explosions and sassy comments! Samantha is the best addition to the team might I add. This series is just a good fun time with good lessons in morality/ethicality. Also sometimes it takes a lot of dumb (designed) luck and craziness to achieve your goals lol!
