Amazon is currently running a promotion on the Kindle editions of the "Dungeon Crawler Carl" series, allowing readers to acquire all eight books for $21.20. This deal arrives as the franchise expands with a forthcoming TV adaptation and a tabletop RPG slated for release in December. The series has seen a surge in popularity following the release of its eighth book in May, with its conclusion reportedly on the horizon.
The discounted Kindle editions offer a cost-effective way to experience Matt Dinniman's LitRPG narrative. While not all titles are included in the sale, most entries are priced at $0.99, with a few exceptions at higher price points. For instance, "Carl's Doomsday Scenario," "The Dungeon Anarchist's Cookbook," "The Gate of the Feral Gods," and "This Inevitable Ruin" are available for $0.99 each. Other titles like "Dungeon Crawler Carl" and "The Butcher's Masquerade" are priced higher, with "A Parade of Horribles" being the most expensive at $6.99 among the discounted e-books.
Purchasing the books individually through this sale is still considerably cheaper than acquiring the physical editions. The hardcover version of "A Parade of Horribles," for example, is listed on Amazon for $22.38, meaning the cost of a single physical book can exceed the price of the entire e-book collection on sale. While a bundle is offered, it only includes five of the discounted titles, offering a marginal saving over individual purchases of those specific books.
Readers do not need a dedicated Kindle device to access these e-books; Amazon's Kindle app is available for free on various platforms including smartphones, tablets, and computers. For those looking to save even further, all "Dungeon Crawler Carl" books are also included in Kindle Unlimited. New subscribers can take advantage of a 30-day free trial, which would allow them to read the entire series without charge if they cancel before the trial period ends. After the trial, Kindle Unlimited costs $11.99 per month.
