Description
The ninth floor. Faction Wars. Nine armies enter, led by rich and powerful aliens from across the galaxy. The winning team must capture and hold the castle at the very center of the battlefield. Strategy, alliances, pitched battles, betrayal . . . It all makes for great fun and even greater television.
But thanks to Carl, Donut, and Katia, this season is different.
For the first time ever, the crawlers have their own army. The NPCs, who are normally used as nothing but cannon fodder, have become fully self-aware and have formed an unprecedented team of their own. And it’s not just the crawlers who are at risk this Faction Wars. Any combatant who dies on the battlefield stays in the ground.
For Donut and Katia, the stakes are even higher. No matter who wins the war, 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 is one of these books that leaves you empty afterward. I discovered this series at the beginning of the year and it is definetly a highlight. I devoured it in record time. Not with this book (that took me almost two months two finish where the rest took me just a couple days each) but that wasn't the fault of the book, that was all me. This book was long but every page was amazing. Exhausting but amazing. The Dungeon is taking a real toll on Carl and everyone and the exhaustion doesn't stay on the pages. The floor is about Faction Wars and war is never pleasant. Matt Dinniman manages to take the readers into the war. To let them feel the pain. To let them feel the exhaustion. It is only through the love this found family shares, the banter, the absurd utterings of the AI and all the other small comic relief that it doesn't become to much. It is really well balanced and if I had had the mental capacity for it, I would have finished this sooner, it is really unputdownable. You will now find me stalking Matt Dinniman online for a hint of the next book BECAUSE WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT ENDING?! The trap at the end? What will that mean for the following floors? And Carl is married to Donut's lawyer?! GIVE ME MORE!
