Cul-de-Sac Carnage

Discount Dan's Backroom Bargains, Book 2

De: James Hunter

Narrado por: Steve Campbell

Welcome back, Bargain Hunters! Stock up. Lock down. And brace yourself for the sale of a lifetime.

With the shadow of the Flayed Monarch looming ever closer, Dan must prepare the store and himself for the battle to come. To stand a chance, he’ll need to expand his operations, broker a precarious trade deal with the Delvers of Howlers Hold, and transform his stash of relics into an arsenal of magical war crimes.

But first, he’ll need to carve a bloody path through the heart of the 24th floor—Eternal Suburbia. A hellish, never-ending labyrinth of tidy lawns, cookie-cutter houses, and homicidal homeowners. Few survive the lawnmower men, the feral Karens, the ever-ravenous Kannibal Kids, or the tyrannical HOA, which reigns supreme with an iron fist of petty rules and bloodstained bylaws.

With a gaggle of increasingly untrustworthy allies, and dangers lurking behind every perfectly trimmed hedge, Dan will need to do the impossible if he wants to beat the system and live to fight another day.

Awesome

Evrry bit as good as DCC and need the next ASAP! Unique, creative and f-n FUN! Top tier author and reader is perfect.

Fun

MC makes new friends and finds a safe spot. He cuts a trade deal with them. It just requires that he descends a couple levels and get laundry service for his store. He also needs to descend to level 99 to face someone called The Franchiser. He gets stuck on level 24 in the worst HOA ever. He wins his way through and Discount Dan’s grows stronger.
Funny story with good fast pacing. Interesting characters. Neat world building. Awesome narrator Please enjoy

How do people come up with this stuff....

Craziest story line Ive ever heard but it works... Enjoyed every minute. Cant wait until book 3.

Im loving this series so far.

This is just as good as some of the gorey litrpg books out there. I think this one might be the best of the series so far. Ill see if the next book in the series is any good.

Fun and frustrating

A LOT of standing around and talking during “frantic” portions of the book. Hard to feel any sense of urgency when the characters are chatting and asking inane questions. Fun read and cool characters but those moments of out of place dialogue really yank me out of the story. Are the bad guys just standing there?
