Resumen del Editor

Swords.

Sorcery.

Dick Jokes.

Truly do the gods smile upon you, dear listener, for the first four books in the hilarious Caverns and Creatures series are now available in one audiobook set. Join Tim, Dave, Julian, and Cooper as they are thrown into a hostile fantasy world filled with magic and monsters, and ruled over by a cruel and sadistic game master who taunts and harasses them while he sits back and eats their fried chicken.

Having taken on the bodies of their fantasy characters, Tim and the others are forced to discover the answers to two questions that every underachieving lowlife who's ever rolled a d20 has asked themselves at least once.

What if you and your friends got to live the game for real? What if you and your friends were assholes?

Would you have what it takes to survive? The strength? The wisdom? The...charisma?

Do you have the dice in your sack?

It's like Lord of the Rings meets your mom in a truck stop bathroom, but even cheaper.

This set includes:

1. Critical Failures
2. Critical Failures II: Fail Harder
3. Critical Failures III: A Storm of S-Words
4. Critical Failures IV: The Phantom Pinas

Struggle to get through

It was a good series of books but very repetitive and immature. I laughed at half of the crude jokes when it came unexpectedly but the vast volume of crude humor was mind numbing at best. You can only make the same joke so many times before it gets boring and you want to strangle the author for not being a little more creative.

The character growth is flat for most of the characters. Maybe the next books in the series are better but I can’t bring myself to buy any more books in this series. I won’t listen to this one again either which is rare for me but it was a struggle the first time and it would be torture to listen again. Will be returning this one as it just didn’t hold up to decent LitRPG novels that are out there.

I would recommend The Ten Realms, Awaken Online, and other series over this one to anyone who would like to listen to LitRPG books.

Great, then not

Narrator was great, especially considering the number of characters. Tim gets too dark and whiney for me. Book 4 way down hill from 1-3. Not enough Cooper and too much backbiting between characters. Everyone but Randy turned unlikeable

a rollercoaster ride for everyone

do not proceed to listen to this book if you are easily offended!

that said, this was quite the experience, mixing typical D&D cliches with typical gameplay and more than a little of your typical players. the storytelling though is masterful and while we of the plot twists I saw coming, others caught me off guard. the writer knows his stuff and this was a pleasure to listen to. I only wish the rest were in another volume for continuous listening!

Waste of money

Love how every white guy the characters run into is a gun slinging, duck dynasty watching camouflage wearing racist, it’s ridiculous and really doesn’t add to the story other than to regurgitate the authors political views.

Loved it! Miss my band of goofs so much now!

Awesome story! Felt like I was back with my misfit gaming group! getting next Book

So bad it's funny

Let's be honest, it's not all that great. It's like bad fanfic, but it's so bad that it's amusing as hell. If you are a DND fan, you can relate to the content from a player's perspective.

Fantastic

Awesome listen...narration is great and the story is laugh out loud moments brought back memories of my own game sessions

loved it

Loved it, more than worth the price of one credit for such an interesting story. The performance was amazing as well.

don't try and eat during this

it talks about poop sex and puke every 20 mins, you'll probly be left wondering why just like me

An incredible concept and story poorly executed

Every. Single. Character... is unlikable. Big picture storylone is incredible! Smaller is not. Solid 3.8/5.
