I am a DnD player, and not just a player, a dungeon master. I am also a lifelong RPG gamer. It feels like this book was written for me. Which might also explain why a lot of people close to me and in my bubble read the series and said they loved it 😄
If you are like me, try to get this book and read it, so you can fall in love with Carl and Princess Donut as well ☺️
An interesting premise and easy, quick read. Sometimes tries a little too hard to be funny.
