About this listen

Attention. Attention. The gates are down. The hunters are loose.

Run, run, run.

A lush jungle teeming with danger. Savage dinosaurs seeking blood. A fallen princess intent on vengeance. A mysterious, end-of-floor celebration for the top crawlers, dubbed “The Butcher’s Masquerade”.

The sixth floor. The Hunting Grounds.

As the remaining crawlers battle for their lives, a new, terrible threat looms. Outside, tourists are finally allowed to enter the game, and they are here and ready to hunt. Among them is Vrah, a famed and veteran hunter, intent on collecting the biggest trophy of her career.

But their prey is far from harmless, and this season they are fighting back.

Dungeon Crawler Carl and Princess Donut return in book five of the acclaimed LitRPG series.

Matt has outdone himself with this one. So much depth to the story and an incredible listen with Jeff nailing these characters. The next book can't come quick enough

Impressive performance. I wish I had such a range of voices and narrative timing. I've grown to really like these books and am looking forward to the next instalment. Despite the fast passing setting and action filled story the character development is brilliant. This has been the best book so far and I'm absolutely digging where this is going. BREAK THEM ALL

Great performance and great story

Amazing series and I can’t wait to see what the next floors throw at the crawlers while the increasingly unhinged AI hands out new achievements

Hurry up and release more!

…of body vandalism rampage through the dungeon creating blood and gore in a delightfully novel spells.
Ugliest descriptive battle commentary, sad losses, vast and varied scenery, the cast of extras will blow your mind, fur ball dissection tests gag reflex in reader / listener, singing lessons produce bardic bonhomie.
Matt Dinniman has produced brilliance in letters which Jeff Hays relays in vocal eloquence.
Thank you gentlemen, your efforts have been greatly appreciated. :-)

I loved Samatha. She just makes me laugh out loud. I found myself laughing at the jokes and offensive comments.

It was hilarious!

This is not the usual kind of story I would read but I saw the reviews and listened to Dungeon Crawler Carl. That was it. I was hooked. The story is entertaining, the characters are quirky and the plot is unpredictable.
The reading by Jeff Hays as the narrator is outstanding. I love this series and am about to download and listen to the next two books.

Great story. Unbelievable performance
