In this book club episode of Literature on the Rocks, we’re heading back into the dungeon to talk Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman — no rules recap, just reactions, chaos, and hot takes.

We debate how long we’d actually survive if we were dropped into the dungeon, whether Carl’s mantra “you will not break me” hit a little too close to home, and how our own pets would stack up against the reigning queen, Princess Donut.

From resilience and survival to unexpected emotional beats and laugh-out-loud moments, this episode is all about why this story sticks with you long after the crawl ends.

Full spoilers, unhinged hypotheticals, and one cat we’re still not over. Grab the Royal Remedy cocktail and join us. 🥂👑
