Survival as intergalactic entertainment

An alien invasion leaves Earth’s survivors trapped in a televised dungeon game, where staying alive is only part of the challenge: they must also keep an audience across the galaxy entertained. Coast Guard veteran Carl enters the trap-filled, video game-like fantasy setting alongside Princess Donut, his ex-girlfriend’s prize-winning cat. The premise combines post-apocalyptic survival, dungeon challenges, and the machinery of a reality show, with fantastical hazards including goblins, potions, and drug-dealing llamas. This paperback edition also includes bonus material: the first part of “Backstage at the Pineapple Cabaret.”

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Fans of action-and-adventure science fiction with a fantasy-dungeon setting
  • Readers interested in video game-like challenges and reality-show premises
  • Those who enjoy stories pairing human protagonists with an unusual animal companion

Book overview

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - The apocalypse will be televised! Welcome to the first book in the wildly popular and addictive Dungeon Crawler Carl series--now with bonus material exclusive to this print edition.

You know what's worse than breaking up with your girlfriend? Being stuck with her prize-winning show cat. And you know what's worse than that? An alien invasion, the destruction of all man-made structures on Earth, and the systematic exploitation of all the survivors for a sadistic intergalactic game show. That's what.

Join Coast Guard vet Carl and his ex-girlfriend's cat, Princess Donut, as they try to survive the end of the world--or just get to the next level--in a video game-like, trap-filled fantasy dungeon. A dungeon that's actually the set of a reality television show with countless viewers across the galaxy. Exploding goblins. Magical potions. Deadly, drug-dealing llamas. This ain't your ordinary game show.

Welcome, Crawler. Welcome to the Dungeon. Survival is optional. Keeping the viewers entertained is not.

Includes part one of the exclusive bonus story "Backstage at the Pineapple Cabaret."
