Fremont Fantasy Book Club

This month we’ll be reading and discussing Dungeon Crawler Carl! It’s book 1 in the Dungeon Crawler Carl series. The book is available on kindle unlimited if that’s relevant to you, and I’ve also heard the audiobook is awesome.

“Dungeon Crawler Carl is a dark fantasy, LitRPG (Literature Role-Playing Game) book series by Matt Dinniman about a man named Carl and his ex-girlfriend's cat, Princess Donut, who are forced to survive an alien-run, intergalactic game show where Earth has been transformed into a massive, trap-filled dungeon. The series blends dark comedy, absurd situations, witty banter, and a meta-commentary on reality television and capitalism.”

For November we’ll read (or reread as the case may be) The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien.

"”In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit." So begins one of the most beloved and delightful tales in the English language—Tolkien's prelude to The Lord of the Rings. Set in the imaginary world of Middle-earth, at once a classic myth and a modern fairy tale, The Hobbit is one of literature's most enduring and well-loved novels.

Bilbo Baggins is a hobbit who enjoys a comfortable, unambitious life, rarely traveling any farther than his pantry or cellar. But his contentment is disturbed when the wizard Gandalf and a company of dwarves arrive on his doorstep one day to whisk him away on an adventure. They have launched a plot to raid the treasure hoard guarded by Smaug the Magnificent, a large and very dangerous dragon. Bilbo reluctantly joins their quest, unaware that on his journey to the Lonely Mountain he will encounter both a magic ring and a frightening creature known as Gollum.”
