I couldn't resist picking up book 2 in this series, mainly just to see what would happen to Carl and Donut next. On level 3 they have a chance to pick a new form & skills, face new (disgusting) enemies & take on quests for valuable loot. The heart of the series, though, remains Carl & Donut's buddy comedy chemistry. Even as they fight to stay alive in a game that's trying to kill them, they maintain their essential humanity/catitude, respectively.
