Dungeon Crawler Carl - Böcker

The ninth floor. Nine armies, each led by rich and powerful aliens from across the galaxy. Each team has one objective: to capture and hold the castle at the very centre of the battlefield. Strategy, alliances, pitched battles, and, of course, betrayal...

It all makes for great fun and even greater television. After all, none of these powerful aliens really die when they're playing war. Except this time. This time, winner takes all. Those who fall, stay in the ground. As the AI continues its rapid decline, Carl and company take advantage of the chaos. For the first time ever, the crawlers are fighting back. They are now one of the nine teams.

And this season, there's a tenth army on the playing field. The NPCs, who are normally used as nothing but cannon fodder, have become fully self-aware and formed a team of their own. For Donut and Katia, the stakes are even higher. Only one of them will be allowed to leave this level. If they all want to survive, they're going to need a little help from a veteran or two.

This is it. This is what they've been fighting toward. This is war.

The apocalypse will be televised! Welcome to the first book in the wildly popular and addictive Dungeon Crawler Carl series by Matt Dinnimannow with bonus material exclusive to this print edition.

”Välkomna, Crawlers! Träningsnivåerna är avklarade. Nu kan spelen börja på riktigt.”

Utomjordingarna har anlänt – och de har förvandlat jorden till en dungeon i många nivåer. Det är dags för en ny säsong av galaxens mest sedda gameshow: Dungeon Crawler World.

Carl och Donut har redan bevisat att en före detta kustbevakare och en tidigare kattkunglighet är ett nästintill oslagbart team. Nu, på tredje nivån, tvingas de slåss hårdare än någonsin i en storstad ödelagd av en gåtfull katastrof. Odöda stryker omkring bland ruinerna. Mördade kvinnor regnar från himlen. Och en uråldrig besvärjelse hotar dem alla. Kan Carl och Donut lösa mysteriet i tid? Och kan Carl till sist hitta ett par byxor?

”Välkommen, Crawler. Att överleva är valfritt. Att underhålla publiken är det inte.”

En man. Hans ex-flickväns prisbelönta utställningskatt. En sadistisk intergalaktisk gameshow där din överlevnad hänger på att du kan döda ditt byte på ett så underhållande sätt som möjligt.

Följ före detta kustbevakaren Carl och katten Princess Donut när de försöker överleva jordens undergång – eller åtminstone ta sig vidare till nästa nivå – i en fantasydungeon full av fällor. En dungeon som i själva verket är inramningen till en realityserie med otaliga tittare runt om i galaxen. Exploderande troll. Magiska brygder. Dödligt farliga, knarklangande lamor. Det här är inget vanligt TV-program.
