The Bedlam Bride by Matt Dinniman
On the one hand, I feel like I'm grinding through these. I'm tired of the LitRPG format. I don't care about the boxes and the upgrades. I'm here for the story. On this level they lean on the card playing type of role playing. Each member gets cards which allow them to do certain things and I felt like I was going to sleep from the explanations. Carl and Donut are by themselves. They are on the surface of earth and all the crawlers are given sections of the earth to perform their quests. They need to get keys by defeating the bosses. The keys open the gates to the stairwells. If you don't get the key, you don't get to go down to the next level.
I was struggling along until about halfway through the book when the action kicked up a notch. Carl and Donut had to fight Ninja Seals and Zombie chickens and Gods and terrible people from Carl and Donut's past. It got very exciting. It became a page turner.
I'm taking a break for a bit before I head to book 7. Those are all that are out at the moment but book 8 is imminent. It still seems like there are a lot of books to go if we are going to get to 15 or even 25 levels.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
