Fun! Devastating! Well-rounded and loveable characters! The horror of corporations and becoming naught but a tool in its machine! Keeping your humanity and kindness in impossible situations! The horrific loss of life for both the “good guys” and the “monsters” they must kill to survive, and the morality of it all!  Funny and clever! I loved it!

Dungeon Crawler Carl is first-person pop-culture-referencing easygoing light adventure in the style of Ernest Cline's Ready Player One, Dennis E. Taylor's Bobiverse or books from John Scalzi or Andy Weir. It's a first LitRPG book I've read - perhaps not that extreme but a fun introduction to genre anyway. LitRPGs are a bit like games that you read, containing statistics, skill levels and scores for the main characters. I was a bit sceptical about the genre but it ended up being good entertainment.
