Books-A-Million has named Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman as its inaugural book of the year.
Originally self-published, Dungeon Crawler Carl has sold more than four million copies. The series is a science fiction fantasy series about a post-apocalyptic world turned into an intergalactic game show where players are forced to crawl through dungeons to entertain alien fans. The series is now published by Penguin Random House and has a collection of action figures designed by Playmates Toys on the way.
“I’ve never played video games or even thought about D&D — Dungeons & Dragons, for the uninitiated — but I fell completely in love with Dungeon Crawler Carl,” says Olivia McDaniel, vice president of marketing at Books-A-Million. “It’s the most fun I’ve ever had reading, and I can’t stop talking about it. I’ve personally convinced more than 70 people to read the series, from coworkers and gym friends to Facebook acquaintances I hadn’t spoken to in years, and every single one of them couldn’t put it down. No matter what kind of reader you are, this book is for you.”
Dungeon Crawler Carl is at the top of Books-A-Million’s “Top 100-ish Gifts” list, which features other books, including special editions of Twilight, Fourth Wing, Charlotte’s Web, and more, along with accessories and toys for both kids and adults. You can browse the list at booksamillion.com.
