Review: Carl's Doomsday Scenario by Matt Dinniman

 


Book two read and done. I got an email from audible offerin 3 months free and I was like sold. I also had this and the next book from Netgalley, so I had to read this immediately. I gave the first book 4 stars and I read that physically. I listened to this and while it was good and more entertaining, I still give this a 4 star because it just didn't make me belly laugh. I was also very annoyed by the narration of Donut whenerver she talked in all caps. I do think this would have been better with a full cast audio. 

This books is set all in one floor and by the end, they reach the 4th floor. But on the 3rd floor, they are in a town like setting where there is a traveling circus in the middle. They also get to choose their races at the very beginning. Donut stays a cat and Carl stays a human. Mordecai becomes an incubus or succubus and he becomes Donut's manager. He is ready for them to survive so he can finally be free of the dungeon forever.

This floor also introduces quests and there is a number of them that Carl and Donut have to partake in. Carl gets into it with an elite who puts Donut into a poisoned state. Mongo is growing at an alarming rate every time he levels up. There is also a quest whre Carl and Donut have to figure out what is happening to the local prostitutes and why they are dying. 

The title makes sense in this quest and I am really intrigued when he will use this particular item. Carl's boxers become a powerful item and this power makes it so if he gets a pair of pants to put on, it will change his stats. There is also interference from the outside empires and they are basically starting a war.
