Publisher's summary

Welcome to the Gun Show!

The top 10 list is populated. The sponsorship program is open. The difficulty is ramping up. The first three floors were nothing compared to what Carl and Donut now face.

The Iron Tangle. An impossibly complicated subway system built out of the world's subterranean railway systems, all combined and then tied together into a knot. Up is down. Down is up. Close is far. The cars are filled with monsters, the railway stations are less than safe, and the exit is always just a few stops away.

But there is hope. For the first time, the crawlers are all working together. The loot is better than ever. And the secret to unraveling it all may be hidden in the pages of a seemingly useless book.

Welcome, crawlers. Welcome to the fourth floor of the dungeon.

Well worth it.

Matt Dinniman has again created an engrossing and entertaining world for Carl & Donut. Adding political intrigue with unique Dungeon Crawling explosiveness this third installment raises the bar as only Matt can.
Thank you Matt ! Well done!

Absolutely BOMB!

Carl and Donut rock the stage and absolutely wreck things over and over on their way to glory and ruin. Must listen tot his story, narrated so fantastically by the wonderful Jeff Hays who brings this story to life like no other. BIG FAN!

Sleepless nights

I really enjoyed this series sound booth as always just added that little bit extra, it's well written with great characters who grow on you with introduction to new ones at perfect intervals. The flow of the books were all great and the Narrator was interesting and made every character come to life in my mind. I cant wait for next book to come out.

amazing series

I have loved this series so much so far. I think that the cast chosen to voice this series is also perfect. I love the entire idea that the world is destroyed and turned into basically a reality show for the whole galaxy or universe or whatever to watch. The writing really makes you feel like you can picture world and everything going on because there's not so much detail that it drones on forever but there's just enough detail so that you can really visualize what's going on in the world around Carl and donut. You can get glimpses like they would of the interplanetary and interspecies politics. then we have the writing when it comes to the main characters and there's some logical and realistic character progression from how the characters react to different situations as they progress through the dungeon as well as their relations with each other and how they change and grow throughout their shared experiences.

I just really like the story and how it's told.
