New achievement! Total, utter failure.

You failed a quest less than five minutes after you received it. Now that’s talent.

A floating fortress occupied by warrior gnomes. A castle made of sand. A derelict submarine guarded by malfunctioning machines. A haunted crypt surrounded by lethal traps.

It was supposed to be easy. One bubble. Four castles. Fifteen days. Capture each one, and the stairwell is unlocked.

Here's the thing. It's never easy. Carl and his team can't go it alone. Not this time. They must rely on the help of the low-level, I-can't-believe-these-idiots-are-still-alive crawlers trapped in the bubble with them. But can they be trusted?

Welcome, Crawler. Welcome to the fifth floor of the dungeon.

Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time


The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

I loved the first three books, but holy shit. every critique I didn't know I had for the first few entries was fully resolved with this one. the pacing on the combat is perfect, the descriptions of what are rather complex systems come across clear as day, I was hooked from start to finish.haudible broke halfway through this review and I can't see anything or tell if I'm even typing anymore glhf out there and killkillkill

Matt really hit his stride here

This has seriously become my favorite litrpg series. I was hesitant at first because it’s not your traditional dnd spinoff. This is dnd meets cyberpunk meets final fantasy meets pop culture on really good mushrooms. The “next level” action of the stories keep it fun and you’re always pleasantly surprised by all the weird plot twists and build outs.

I’m going to restart the series now since there isn’t a book 5 to listen to yet,

I’m hooked

The story is fantastic, but without the narrator it wouldn’t be the full, immersive, insanely fantastic LitRPG saga that this series is. I almost want to take stars off because I have to wait for the next floor. I hug my cat tighter at night.

Goddammit, Donut!

***Spoiler (kind of)***
It’s hard to review this book because I’m comparing it to the other books and as a result, the other “levels”. Because this wasn’t my favorite level set up/ design, this was not my favorite book in the series BUT I think this book was used to set up way bigger plans for follow on books. I still think the book was great though. Also the voice actor continues to do an amazing job. I cannot believe it’s one person doing all of the voices!!

Great book series
