Publisher's Summary

Attention. Attention. The gates are down. The hunters are loose.

Run, run, run.

A lush jungle teeming with danger. Savage dinosaurs seeking blood. A fallen princess intent on vengeance. A mysterious, end-of-floor celebration for the top crawlers, dubbed “The Butcher’s Masquerade”.

The sixth floor. The Hunting Grounds.

As the remaining crawlers battle for their lives, a new, terrible threat looms. Outside, tourists are finally allowed to enter the game, and they are here and ready to hunt. Among them is Vrah, a famed and veteran hunter, intent on collecting the biggest trophy of her career.

But their prey is far from harmless, and this season they are fighting back.

Dungeon Crawler Carl and Princess Donut return in book five of the acclaimed LitRPG series.

Still great

Kinda wish I'd found the series after a few more books. I'm coming to the end of those available and it will hard to wait for the next.

How do these keep getting better?

Book 2 and 3 were top tier books but this was the best one by far. The layers of complexity continue to grow but in a co pulling way and not an overwhelming one.
Jeff Hays is an absolute superstar in this book.

NEW ACHIEVEMENT!

You've burned through 5 credits in the last month listening to Dungeon Crawler Carl...
If I didn't know any better, I'd say you're a fan!

REWARD?

Well I'm not giving you any more credits. Be patient and wait like a good little boy to get the 6th book.

Best audiobook series ever

Dungeon Crawler Carl keeps getting better and better. I can't wait for the next book in the series, and while I wait, I think I'm going to have to listen to the entire series again!!

Better Book Better Performance

I will just say that Chapter 74 and the End Credits were awesome performances by Jeff Hays.
