The Dungeon Book by Gareth Hanrahan Read by Lawrence Neale

A young girl is left to die in a wizard’s dungeon but finds a new home with the monsters around her in this humorous and heartfelt standalone epic fantasy from acclaimed author Gareth Hanrahan. “Full of wit and adventure, twists and turns, wonderful monsters, and astonishing revelations. An absolute joy.” —M. R. Carey, author of Infinity Gate Enter a world of dungeons and dragons, magic and manticores, and goblins and gargoyles … Bait doesn’t remember a time before the dungeon. Before the dragon stole her from her cot. She doesn’t know what her name was before she was handed over to the monstrous denizens of the dungeon beneath the sorcerer’s tower. Luckily for Bait, they decided not to eat her. And so she grew up in the dark—the goblins her adopted family, a vengeful minotaur her protector, a sentient skull her tutor, and a blob of corridor slime her main source of nutrition. But the labyrinthine dungeon, with its haunted halls, buried temples and forgotten magics, draws treasure hunters like moths to flame. And as the outside world starts to intrude, Bait will learn what it means to be monstrous and she will have to decide where she truly belongs. “The Dungeon Book manages the difficult task of being epic and heartfelt both at once, and does it with style. I fell in love with Bait and her menagerie of friends immediately.” —Django Wexler, author of How to Become the Dark Lordand Die Trying “For a story set in the deepest, darkest dungeon, The Dungeon Book absolutely bursts with warmth, heart, and energy. One of the best things you’re going to read this year.” —Jackson Ford, author of The Bone Raiders
