In the past I would have said the production of The Golden Compass was my favorite audiobook cast… then The Butcher’s Masquerade showed up and now this is my new favorite.
If you’re reading this because you want a new series to listen to, this is the fifth book, go listen to the first one not this one what are you even doing here weirdo?!
If you just finished the fourth book and you’re not sure about going on for a fifth… well let me tell you: this book is EPIX with an X. It’s that good!
This book manages to take the cartoonish universe of Dungeon Crawler Carl and make it something far more living and feeling. I laughed. I cried. I balled my fists in anger before remembering I was on the subway on the way to work listening to an audiobook and people were staring. It’s. That. Good.
