The Gate of the Feral Gods (Dungeon Crawler Carl, #4)

Its great at one point I was a bit confused about the layout but I really enjoyed how everything tied together and there were no loose ends. There are still stories continuing but I like how some of them are finished now and we get to experience something nee. The endings of those stories were very satisfying and well with the characters of the book. AI is getting crazier and it’s just wonderful! This book really makes you feel and understand the scale that those games are happening at and is just wonderful to read!

It’s a super fun story with interesting concept. Really well written and makes you feel like you are there and understand Murderbots feelings and actions. Not for a second it’s boring or unnecessary.

Steven L. Peck

read

Great book and very entertaining short story. Does make you think a bit on how we are as humans and raises some good questions about faith and religion. That said at the end I had a feeling like we were missing something, like I wanted more of the story. Its well written and reads soothly and I would recommend this book to anyone that is looking for a shorter book that you can finish in a day or over a weekend

This book could have been a lot shorter and felt a bit like very average Netflix teenage show. The book even played a bit on that. The plot twist is nice and book from perspective of the girl is great, really good. Too bad majority of the book is not from her perspective. Drew’s point of view often reminds us how he feels and why with justification of it. Like yeah we know you just said that no need to remind us of it. Some of his interactions in the book a a bit strange. Almost like his parts were written by a bunch of teenagers that never had actual social interactions with an adult. Overall book is at it’s low on how people behave and talk to each other each time book is at his perspective. You could skip half of his chapters and the book would not lose anything. That said outside of it the book was pretty good too bad majority of it was just Drew.

Donella H. Meadows

read

The book is good but suffers from repetition. Often example is made and then followed by more similar examples before moving on. This might be good to get to broader audience but it does seem like a fluff that is just there to make book longer

Great continuation of the previous book. This book manages to build nicely upon the first installment and introduce new concepts while keeping the same humor and feelings from the first one.
