Just cracked open The Inevitable Ruined—the latest in the Dungeon Crawler Carl series by Matt Dinniman—and had to take a moment to say: wow. I stumbled across this series a while back and was instantly hooked. Every time a new book drops, I find myself going back and rereading the entire series just to relive the journey and fully appreciate the latest installment. This time was no different.

What started as a book with a weird (but amazing) premise—filled with over-the-top humor, clever double entendres, and jokes that only certain readers will catch—has evolved into something truly impressive. The characters have grown into people I genuinely care about. I’m drawn in not just by the comedy or the chaos, but by their humanity—their pain, their struggles, their grit. It’s not easy to write something that makes you laugh out loud and feel deeply, but Matt manages to do both masterfully.

Kudos from a dedicated fan who’s recommended this series to everyone—not just the LitRPG crowd. Thanks for sharing this strange, hilarious, and surprisingly heartfelt world with us. Keep doing what you do.
