Based on popularity, recommendations, and my own deep love for fantasy and sci-fi, I picked up Dungeon Crawler Carl. I found the premise engaging enough, but Carl strikes me as a nothing-burger of a character, and the plot featured the same repetitive motions of "find mob" and subsequently "explode-mob's-head" (usually accompanied with graphic Gore and Marvel-esque quippy sarcasm.)

I found the book creative in moments but insufferable at times. However, whenever Carl stepped OUT of the game, and engaged with the greater narrative (Borant, the universe at large the, etc...) I found myself enjoying the book much more.

So simple question: does the series wallow in goblin-squashing for the majority? Or does the narrative expand beyond the dungeon?

Does it become more nuanced as it goes on?

Ahojte Slováci! My fiance and I are from America and are coming to Vienna and Bratislava for our honeymoon (svadobná cesta) because her whole family has Slovak heritage. We will be in the Bratislava area for about a week.

I have already looked up some of the major sights to see online. I'm wondering if some of the locals could share their thoughts on the best ways to spend our time while visiting.

We love nature and history, art and culture. We are able to take day-trips, rent cars or bikes, etc...

Any recommendations? Ďakujem veľmi pekne!
