The time has come! Book seven in the best-selling Dungeon Crawler Carl series is here!

They call it Faction Wars.

The ninth floor.

Nine armies, each led by rich and powerful aliens from across the galaxy. Each team has one objective: to capture and hold the castle at the very center of the battlefield. Strategy, alliances, pitched battles, and, of course, betrayal ... It all makes for great fun and even greater television.

After all, none of these powerful aliens really die when they’re playing war.

Except this time. This time, winner takes all. Those who fall, stay in the ground.

As the AI continues its rapid decline, Carl and company take advantage of the chaos. For the first time ever, the crawlers are fighting back. They are now one of the nine teams. And this season, there’s a tenth army on the playing field. The NPCs, who are normally used as nothing but cannon fodder, have become fully self-aware and formed a team of their own.

For Donut and Katia, the stakes are even higher. Only one of them will be allowed to leave this level.

If they all want to survive, they’re going to need a little help from a veteran or two.

This is it.

This is what they’ve been fighting toward.

This is war.

This inevitable ruin.

I listen to over a thousand hours of audiobooks a year. Dungeon Carl is in my top five favorite books. All of the books in the series I have given 5 stars which was easy. I almost took one star away for this storyline only because I found it got a little confusing, a bit hard to keep up with everything going on and remembering what all the spells were and what everybody and everything could do and how they fit in
.😵‍💫 BUT.... in the end it really didn't matter and I still couldn't stop listening. Matt's imagination is nothing short of genius to me. This series is so enjoyable and funny that I can't wait for the next book!

Fabulous as always!🤩

This book is just so action packed and concludes so many arcs in a wonderfully thought out way. In my opinion, it is the best of the series so far and I’m so excited to see what comes next. Well done!

I don't even know what to say about this, I think I'm still in shock from it all. It was chaos, some serious found family vibes going on, Carl is getting very attached to these people, and I fear the worst! Donut is amazing as usual, and is one tough kitty! The AI is getting crazier and so are the challenges! This gets five stars for sure!
