The time has come! Book seven in the bestselling Dungeon Crawler Carl series is here! They call it Faction Wars.The ninth floor. Nine armies, each led by rich and powerful aliens from across the galaxy. Each team has one objective: to capture and hold the castle at the very center of the battlefield. Strategy, alliances, pitched battles, and, of course, betrayal... It all makes for great fun and even greater television. After all, none of these powerful aliens really die when they're playing war. Except this time. This time, winner takes all. Those who fall, stay in the ground. As the AI continues its rapid decline, Carl and company take advantage of the chaos. For the first time ever, the crawlers are fighting back. They are now one of the nine teams. And this season, there's a tenth army on the playing field. The NPCs, who are normally used as nothing but cannon fodder, have become fully self-aware and formed a team of their own. For Donut and Katia, the stakes are even higher. Only one of them will be allowed to leave this level. If they all want to survive, they're going to need a little help from a veteran or two. This is it.This is what they've been fighting toward.This is war. This inevitable ruin.

"I had doubts years ago when I first started this series, but dinniman hasn't let me down yet. I mean, the 9th floor has been hyped the entire series and I didn't know if he'd cheese it or cop out or something, but no, somehow the author balanced dozens of characters, plot threads, and more while keeping the humor and action top tier. <br/>when many series get built up over time, the story and what made it great in the first place can get away from the author. Dinniman, however, said **** that and straight nails it. you could argue it got clunky in the middle when so much was going on and Carl had to be included in everything so the reader could follow along, but it being a multi front war with 100k+ people and so many damn characters kinda makes it necessary and dinniman even lampshaded the issue by making it a flaw Carl has to overcome by not butting in on everyone else's missions, focus on his own, and trust the others.<br/>Also, I wanted to shout out to a bright star, a hero, and perhaps the true protagonist: Jamal. All he ever wanted was to hop. he'd give all his sorries for the chance to hop again!"

"<strong>How???</strong><br/><br/>I don't know how he keeps doing it, but I'm not mad about it. This one was the most intense and heartwrenching one yet. It's an absolute emotional roller coaster that I don't want to get off. I can't wait for the next one."
