Our take
On the dungeon’s fifth floor, Carl and his team have fifteen days to capture four castles and unlock the stairwell, but they must rely on low-level crawlers whose loyalty is uncertain.

About the book
New achievement unlocked: total, utter failure.
Carl and Princess Donut have survived monsters, mazes, and madness, but the fifth floor is something new. The rules are simple—capture four castles in fifteen days—and completely impossible. A floating fortress of gnomes, a crumbling castle of sand, a haunted crypt, and a derelict submarine all stand between them and the next level.
To win, Carl must rely on a team of low-level crawlers who seem barely capable of survival. In a world where every ally could be bait, every victory carries a cost.
Matt Dinniman’s The Gate of the Feral Gods is a brutal, hilarious LitRPG adventure where teamwork, betrayal, and chaos collide deep in the dungeon’s deadly fifth floor.

A strong match for readers who enjoy action-heavy progression fantasy, elaborate dungeon puzzles, dark humor, and chaotic teamwork.

About the book
Welcome to the Gun Show!
The top ten list is populated. The sponsorship program is open. The difficulty is ramping up. The first three floors were nothing compared to what Carl and Donut now face.
The Iron Tangle. An impossibly-complicated subway system built out of the world's subterranean railway systems, all combined and then tied together into a knot. Up is down. Down is up. Close is far. The cars are filled with monsters, the railway stations are less than safe, and the exit is always just a few stops away.
But there is hope. For the first time, the crawlers are all working together. The loot is better than ever. And the secret to unraveling it all may be hidden in the pages of a seemingly-useless book. Welcome, crawlers. Welcome to the fourth floor of the dungeon.

Carl’s Doomsday Scenario
Fantasy · LitRPG
Our take
Carl and Princess Donut face their most dangerous crawl yet in the Over City, a shattered metropolis of undead circuses, cursed magic, and killer fame.

About the book
The dungeon has changed. The rules are gone. The apocalypse has gone viral.

The world watches as the game spirals into chaos. Fame, fortune, and death blur together while an ancient spell threatens to end everything. Somewhere in the carnage, Carl is still missing his pants.
Matt Dinniman’s Carl’s Doomsday Scenario is a darkly funny, brutal, and wildly inventive LitRPG adventure about friendship, survival, and what it really takes to win when the game never ends.

When failed performer Danny Kendrick lands in a chaotic fantasy realm filled with barbarians, assassins, and a snarky AI, heroism isn’t on his to-do list.
An Unexpected Hero
Fantasy · LitRPG · Sword and Sorcery
Our take
When failed performer Danny Kendrick lands in a chaotic fantasy realm filled with barbarians, assassins, and a snarky AI, heroism isn’t on his to-do list. But survival is. An Unexpected Hero by Rhett C. Bruno and Jaime Castle delivers laugh-out-loud adventure, quirky companions, and the most reluctant hero this side of the multiverse.
Choose your retailer
About the book
Some heroes are chosen. Danny Kendrick just got really, really unlucky.
A washed-up performer who never caught a break, Danny wanted applause, not adventure. But after ticking off the wrong guy, he’s yanked from his mediocre life and dropped into a world of barbarians, elves, and unpredictable magic that feels one bad joke away from a Renaissance Fair gone wrong.
Armed with nothing but charm, wit, and an ancient lute he probably shouldn’t have accepted, Danny must survive long enough to figure out why every powerful faction suddenly wants him dead.
From Rhett C. Bruno and Jaime Castle, An Unexpected Hero is a hilarious fantasy isekai LitRPG packed with friendship, chaos, and the discovery that even the most reluctant adventurer can steal the spotlight.

Thorn may have survived ascension, but landing in a strange new world is a whole different problem.
Forge Master
Fantasy · Sci-Fi · Cyberpunk · LitRPG
Our take
Thorn may have survived ascension, but landing in a strange new world is a whole different problem. With a god beast at his side and a sentient AI in the mix, he is pulled into guild politics, dangerous plots, and the kind of high-stakes adventure that demands more than brute strength. Forge Master kicks off this LitRPG series with immersive worldbuilding, steady progression, and plenty of action.

About the book
Ascending should have been the easy part...
But after being thrown into the void, Thorn finds himself stranded in a strange world filled with even stranger creatures.
Together with his cute battle pet, the mysterious god beast Hati, and a sentient AI named Eve, Thorn must forge a place for himself in this new world. Unfortunately, the local guilds all have other ideas and soon the Titan finds himself embroiled in plots that even his famed strength cannot help him with.
Rallying his strengths and learning how to fix his weaknesses will be the absolute minimum Thorn needs to survive, but if he wants to thrive, he’ll be forced to take risks that put his life and the lives of his friends on the line.
Forge Master is the first book in the Tower Series, a GameLit/LitRPG series from Seth Ring, bestselling author of Battle Mage Farmer and The Titan Series. Set in the world of Nova Terra and starring the unforgettable Thorn, if you like immersive storytelling, rich fantasy, and epic adventures with a slice of friendship thrown in, you’ll love this page-turning series.

A new life begins inside a game world where the wrong abilities can make someone a target.
Ritualist
Fantasy · LitRPG
Our take
A new life begins inside a game world where the wrong abilities can make someone a target. In Ritualist, Joe becomes a permanent resident of a magical system governed by quests, classes, and relentless progression. When he discovers that his rare abilities are forbidden and deadly to possess, survival depends on mastering them in secret, making this LitRPG adventure driven by strategic growth, escalating danger, and the pursuit of ultimate completion.

About the book
A LitRPG adventure perfect for fans of He Who Fights with Monsters, Unbound, and The Path of Ascension.
A game that puts all others to shame. Magic that has been banned from the world. A man willing to learn no matter the cost.
The decision to start a new life is never an easy one, but for Joe the transition was far from figurative. Becoming a permanent addition to a game world, it doesn't take long to learn that people with his abilities are actively hunted. In fact, if the wrong people gained knowledge of what he was capable of, assassins would appear in droves.
In his pursuit of power, Joe fights alongside his team, completes quests, and delves into the mysteries of his class, which he quickly discovers can only be practiced in secret. Ultimately, his goal is to complete every mission, master every ability, and learn all of the world's secrets.
All he has to do is survive long enough to make that happen.
With over 1 million copies sold, The Completionist Chronicles is a LitRPG series packed with immersive progression, mechanic-driven character growth, and quest-based advancement. The result is a humorous fantasy adventure that feels like stepping straight into an RPG world.
Perfect for fans of the snarky narrative of Dungeon Crawler Carl, the expansive worldbuilding of Defiance of the Fall, and the clearly defined magical progression of Cradle.
