Critical Failures IV by Robert Bevan
5.0
It’s been a while but the wait was well worth it. Once again, Robert has brought me back to my teenage years and the stories are fantastic. We join our crew of C&C misfits (Dave, Tim, Cooper, Julian, Cat, Chaz, Stacy, and others) as they seek out Mordred after being thrust back into the realm of Cardinia.
What do you do when one of your characters brings about a new God into a realm which, prior to this encounter, had established rules and deities? Well, Randy is on a quest to find out as he is now the sole Paladin/holy man for the Jesus Christ within the realms.
Perhaps the most disturbing encounter in the book was with regards to Denise in the cellar of the Whore's Head Tavern. I won't spoil it, but it caught me by surprise during one of my evening runs.
There are many side stories within this fourth installment of the series and it keeps you drawn in to the same wonderful writing style which was present in the first three books (and three collections of short stories known as the D6 writings).
Robert is a master of the pen and has brought about another gem in the collection. Likewise, Jonathan Sleep is a fantastic narrator and is great with the various characters present in the story. Now, the wait for book five audiobook. An easily recommended book if you've ever played D&D.
