Welcome to the Gun Show!
The top 10 list is populated. The sponsorship program is open. The difficulty is ramping up. The first three floors were nothing compared to what Carl and Donut now face.
The Iron Tangle. An impossibly complicated subway system built out of the world’s subterranean railway systems, all combined and then tied together into a knot. Up is down. Down is up. Close is far. The cars are filled with monsters, the railway stations are less than safe, and the exit is always just a few stops away.
But there is hope. For the first time, the crawlers are all working together. The loot is better than ever. And the secret to unraveling it all may be hidden in the pages of a seemingly useless book.
Welcome, crawlers. Welcome to the fourth floor of the dungeon.

Another dungeon level full of insanity
I loved this continuation of the Dungeon Crawl game show with Carl, Katia, Mongo, and Princess Donut as they try to survive and get to the next level. The story had the perfect balance of humor, love, real life issues, cuteness, danger, machinations, supernatural elements, surprises, and morality. This book continues exactly where the last book left off. Carl, Donut, and Mongo are now of level 4 of the Crawl – the Tangle. They continue to be very popular with the fans, Mordecai continues to assist them, Carl continues to come up with crazy dangerous plans, and Donut continues to be Donut. I loved the interplay between Carl and Princess Donut and that Carlâs character is a sweet, snarky, messy, lucky, sarcastic, kind of dumb, angry, and awkward man who regularly screws up which just makes him a very likeable and relatable hero. I especially love his mantra of âyou will not break me.â The story includes what youâd expect from this genre – fighting, dangerous situations, supernatural creatures, evil entities, henchmen, loyal friends, tragic back stories, mystical coincidences, snark, plot twists, and laughs. There was once again some light ethical, moral, and philosophical undercurrents which added to the depth of the story but did not detract from it. I will definitely keep reading the series to see what the next levels are like and what happens with Carl and Princess Donut especially now that Katia is permanently on their team.

Are you looking for a perfect series of books? Right here!
I thought Matt Dinniman set a very high bar for himself on the first Dungeon Crawler Carl book. After finishing book 3, it’s clear he continues to reset the bar. This series is just fantastic. The story arc(s) are deep and compelling and incredibly interesting. And the characters are some of the best written you’re going to come across. This series is not to be missed.

Still amazing, but a bit less amazing than the first two books.
Series Info/Source: This is the third book in the Dungeon Crawler Carl series. I bough this on audiobook.Thoughts: I am just going to put out there right away that this has been my least favorite Dungeon Crawler Carl book so far. I still really enjoyed it a lot, but I didn’t absolutely love it like the first two. I think this is because The Iron Tangle is too technical and confusing and hard to follow. My family listened to this on audiobook and by the end we were still confused about exactly what the Iron Tangle was and how it worked.Welcome to Level 4 of the dungeon. Character races and classes have been chosen, and now Carl and Donut are on to the more mysteries and adventures. For Carl and Donut, finding the stairway to the fifth floor is going to be more of a mystery and more dangerous than any floor yet.While I respected that there was a complicated puzzle here, it was really hard to follow what was going on, especially on audiobook. The plot started to feel incredibly repetitive with them getting on trains and getting off on stations and fighting stuff and repeating all over again. The environment was just too monotonous.I did enjoy some of the new characters we met and some of the abilities Donut and Carl gained. I also enjoyed that we got a deeper look at the employees on these levels and what they are going through. With less achievements happening, there was a bit less humor in this book as well. This felt less like an adventure and more like a strange mind game full of twisted trains.I still really liked the book. I love Donut and Carl as characters and enjoyed how the subplot involving Helka’s (sp) daughters played out. I just didn’t like the setting and working behind this level that much, and my family agreed. We have just started listening to the fourth audiobook and that one has been much more interesting so far.My Summary (4.5/5): Overall I really like this book but not as much as the first two in the series. The train setting got repetitive and seemed overly complicated. I continue to enjoy the world-building and characters. There is also a lot of awesome action and the politics external to the dungeon are getting increasingly interesting.

Excellent Third Book!
As with the first two in the series this was great fun. The action is very well done, and the humor and characterization are both terrific! I think the Dungeon Crawler Carl books would make for a wonderful video game, D&D module or TV series. Money well spent.

When I first cracked open Volume 1, I really wasn’t sure if I was going to enjoy it.By the time I got to the end, I couldn’t put it down. Now I’m tearing through these books, and I’m not looking forward to the day I finish #6 and have to start waiting for who-knows-how-long in between releases.These books seem shallow and kitschy on the surface, but man oh man, the tale gets deeper with every edition – and they never lose the rock-and-roll bombast.For the price, you really can’t lose. Read them.
