*PRE-ORDER THE FIFTH BOOK IN THE EXPLOSIVE DUNGEON CRAWLER CARL SERIES*

"Dungeon Crawler Carl is legit awesome" #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson
***
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.
And now a mysterious, end-of-floor celebration for the top crawlers, dubbed ‘The Butcher’s Masquerade.’
But that’s not all.

Just when Carl and Princess Donut think they’ve seen it all as they compete to survive in the galaxy’s most popular game show, the latest floor level introduces a terrible new threat.

The Hunting Grounds.

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

Carl and Princess Donut might her prey, but this season, the prey are fighting back.
