Hysterical - sarcasm and potty humor

This is a collection of short stories from the Caverns and Creatures universe. They are companion pieces to the main books in the series Critical Failures 1, 2 and 3. The short stories are not meant to be worked into the main storyline of the Critical Failure books. In d6, the main characters get go on some fun adventures or misadventures, I should say. In this way, d6 is a great way to get your feet wet in Caverns and Creatures and see how you like it. The premise is a bunch of casual gamers (think D&D) are transformed into their characters and enter the C&C universe for real. As you can imagine, calamity and hilarity ensues. This is no epic Tolkien-esqe adventure. This is a bunch of bumbling losers doing their best to be adventurous and not die. I don't think you have to be a gamer to like this book, but some of the jokes will be funnier if you 'get it'. Also, iIf you don't like poop jokes, then this is not for you. Walk away. Seriously.

The narrator is outstanding. Anyone that can narrate a half orc, dwarf, and halfling and make them all sound distinct but not cheesy is pretty awesome in my book.

Loved it and fell over laughing more than one

Loved it and well performed. Please Robert Bevan, let's get more adventures from this bunch.

Fantastic, many genuine laugh out loud moments!

Would you listen to D6: Caverns and Creatures again? Why?

I listened to it twice, which is very rare for me for audible books.

What was one of the most memorable moments of D6: Caverns and Creatures?

Coops as the Half Orc mixed dick and fart humor in a way that should not be as funny as it is.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Almost, I had to make extra time to finish it.

Any additional comments?

I didn't go into this expecting too much, and finished it very happy. I listened to the book after downloading it off of Audible. I think this book suits listening to more than reading. The general setting being some fratish guys invite over an DM to run a role playing game for them. They were kind of jerks to the GM and ended up banished into the actual game world they were playing in, and as the players they were role playing.

That would leave a lot of options, but the author managed to keep it funny, fun and engaging. There is violence, blood, sex jokes, the usually from the players as you'd expect. And the players are aware of who they are and what their characters are, to the extend they were banished with copies of their own character sheets. The groups was old players who know each other, a new guy and several accidentals one of which had played before.

The story get slow in parts, which is why I am glad I was listening instead of reading. But there were many times I felt nostalgic and even laughed out loud ad their shenanigans. The end is sort of rushed and not really complete, since new books are out for the serious already.

Mini-Adventures

These tales are great. They take place after the events in the first book, so read that first.

The good stuff

Burned through all six mains and now I’m here, what a god damn ride. 10/10 would read again. I have bad gas a lot. Coop makes me feel good.

:)

awesome book with a great narration. lots of lewd crude humor! if you like the critical failures books then jump right in with this one.

Awesome as usual

I love every story I read about Tim, Dave, Cooper, Julian and Ravenous! These short stories are so much fun to listen to on audible. You can listen to them in any order and they're fun to repeat. I still laugh just as much even when I'm listening for the second time.

I LOVE THEM SO DAMN MUCH!!!!

So well written. I can't wait to hear more. I'll be checking every month until the next book is available. Please please check them out. The world would be a better place if everyone laughed more. We need more books like this.

Hilarious!

The misadventures of Tim, Cooper, Dave, and Julian are amazing to listen to. It has a very crude sense if humor, but if you are fine with that, then this is for you.

love this series!

love everything about this series, and CANNOT wait for more books to come to audible
