So, Book? A Fantasy and Sci-Fi Book Club Podcast

Book Club discusses the sixth Dungeon Crawler Carl book by Matt Dinniman. Yugio? Pokemon? Magic the Gathering? It's DCC deck building and book club is not totally sold on the new mechanics at play, but flagging fellow crawlers does open some fun contemplations about morality. Some highlights include: speculating about Samantha (getting eaten whole yet again, her role in the 12th floor, and if she'll ever get a body) and staking bets on what the baby Mongos will be (baby dinos, baby bears, pets, or full-blown NPCs). *Spoilers for the full set of DCC books up through the end of Ch 16 in the Bedlam Bride*

Book club discusses and debates the end (chapters 56-end) of the fifth Dungeon Crawler Carl book, The Butcher's Masquerade, by Matt Dinniman. Did we get excited and start with the epilogue? Possibly. Don't worry, we still talk through the full theories on who Lucia Mar really is (or should we say 'who is in'?). Will Chris ever get more of a moment? Did we care about the unaliving of fellow crawlers at the end of this book? Does Donut truly understand geography?*Spoilers for the full DCC series up to the end of The Butcher's Masquerade*

Book club discusses and debates Part 3 (chapters 26-55) of the fifth Dungeon Crawler Carl book, The Butcher's Masquerade, by Matt Dinniman. Did we shed any tears for the loss of the vampire? There may be some AI fan-clubbing as it gets more extreme with its repercussions for not following the spirit of the dungeon. Finishing with out predictions for what will actually happen in the Masquerade at the end of this book. *Spoilers for the full DCC series up to the end of Part 3 in The Butcher's Masquerade*
