Dungeon Crawler Carl 系列第二集延續了首集的成功元素。把地下城變成遊戲節目的設定、黑色幽默，以及搶走大半鏡頭的貓咪 Princess Donut，一樣不缺。不過本集有很大篇幅放在支線任務與非玩家角色上，讀者的反應因此分歧：有人依然讀得津津有味，也有人覺得新鮮感減退、主線遲遲沒有進展。適合熱愛角色扮演遊戲、不怕混亂場面的讀者。

值得一提 Dungeon Crawler Carl 的第二集，於 2021 年出版，緊接著第一集展開，帶著卡爾和他前女友的貓 Princess Donut深入地下城第三層。和第一集一樣，它最初在 Royal Road 上連載，大多數讀者則是透過傑夫．海斯朗讀的有聲書認識它。這個系列最好嚴格按順序讀，因為每一集都從上一集結束的地方開始。

關於本書

Join Carl and his ex-girlfriend’s cat, Princess Donut, as they fight fantastical creatures and deadly mobs to make it to the next level and build the kind of fan following the dungeon masters can’t ignore in the second book in the smash-hit Dungeon Crawler Carl series—now with bonus material exclusive to this print edition. “Greetings, Crawlers! The training levels have concluded. Now the games may truly begin.” The aliens have come, and they’ve transformed Earth into a multilevel, video game–like dungeon. It’s the newest season of the galaxy’s most watched game show, Dungeon Crawler World. Now on the third floor, Carl and Donut have to fight harder than ever. They’ve already proven that a Coast Guard vet and once-and-forever feline royalty are an almost unstoppable team. Their ratings are off the charts. Viewers can’t get enough. But the dungeon gets more dangerous each day, and now there’s a whole new problem to deal with: Quests. They call it the Over City. A sprawling, once-thriving metropolis devastated by a mysterious calamity. But these streets are far from abandoned. An undead circus trawls the ruins. Murdered women rain from the sky. An ancient spell is finally ready to reveal its dark purpose. Can Carl and Donut solve the mystery in time? And can Carl finally find some pants? Includes part two of the exclusive bonus story “Backstage at the Pineapple Cabaret.”
