Im on the third dungeon crawler carl now. After book 1 i ordered the entire series on amazon, and both of the first two were consumed in 3-4 days, its so hilarious and addicting

[@FunFantasyBooks]

Really!! Okay this is amazing praise!

[@YaFeya13]

Is it a good idea for me to get this in an audiobook format? considering I don’t know what litRPG is?

[@robert_lightsong]

I listened to all 6 books. WOW! Amazing performance, best audiobook narration I’ve ever heard. But I do agree, these book are hilarious, action packed, and surprisingly emotional. Great overall story 👍

[@OnlyTheBestFantasyNovels]

Wow, it really is like a Fantasy Booktuber Greatest Hits list. A bunch of these books folks rave about you see discussed pretty much nowhere else. Thanks for compiling - meta lists like these are always more notable than arbitrary selection. Pleasantly surprised I've only read 7 of these!

[@danlupo4665]

This is making me excited for my next little bit of reading - I literally just started both the Age of Madness and Dandelion Dynasty

[@FunFantasyBooks]

Yes!!!! Oh I hope you end up loving both series!

[@scottv5587]

Booktube really is the best way to create a TBR. Thanks for compiling this list! Currently reading Empire of Silence and it deserves the hype. If you enjoy thoughtful prose it’s a must read

[@FunFantasyBooks]

You’re welcome! I am so happy it is useful! Please share a book here you’d think others will like!! I will read Empire of silence this month!!

[@Corlwow]

Please read first law and the standalones before age of madness - yes, the blade itself is one massive prologue but the other two - especially the last is one of the most insane endings to a trilogy ever and reading age of madness kinda ruins that amazing entertaining build up and delivery as well as the excellent character work in the first trilogy and the stand alone trilogy.

[@yremogtnomnad]

Wooo Dandelion Dynasty! Read it last year and it is my all time favorite series, so good 🔥

[@LibrariesandLattes]

I absolutely loved Tress and Very Secret Society!!

[@crazyforbooksandcoffee]

Great list. THANK YOU ❤

[@kmlockswior]

Dungeon Crawler Carl is a fantastic Series and Will of the Many is excellent as well.

[@FunFantasyBooks]

Can’t wait for Dungeon Crawler Carl! Somehow i went from not knowing the book to seeing it everywhere! Attention bias at its finest!

[@savannaluangviseth41]

Thanks for the list!!

[@mdlouie]

+1 for Dungeon Crawler Carl. I've never read anything like it, but I'm just about to finish book 6 and they've all been great.

[@zem_fm]

Stories of Your Life is high on my non-physical TBR priority list! (and Leonie is the one who put it there as well 😂)

[@FunFantasyBooks]

Hahahah did you know she bought it on a library here in Madrid??

[@zem_fm]

@@FunFantasyBooks Omg really?? I did not! It's come full circle now I guess 😂

[@amy_harboredinpages8272]

I'm reading The Will of the Many atm. 😁 I have high anticipation!

[@FunFantasyBooks]

Please come back and tell me your thoughts!!!

[@bobkeane7966]

Just finished The Grace of Kings, great story.

[@johnsparegrave5996]

Empire of Silence is amazing!

[@the_fools_tale]

I can confirm Dungeon Crawler Carl is pretty good

[@FunFantasyBooks]

Hahahah yay! I just bought it after multiple recommendations!! 🥹

[@laku_u]

I'm surprised to see Stories of Your Life there, I thought I was the last one to read it! But I'm loving it now that I got to the longer stories, so it definitely deserve its position 💕

[@FunFantasyBooks]

So happy you are enjoying now Stories of your Life! It has been a solid minute since I read it but definitely remember loving it!

[@terrillrogers9983]

Loved the Green Bone Saga series

[@andrewf7732]

Dandelion Dynasty at #1 feels right. It was by far my favorite reads last year and imo one of the best fantasy series ever written.

[@FunFantasyBooks]

It does!! It is such a great series! Can’t wait to continue with it!

[@kimberlypiccirilli3560]

Thank you!

[@caitlinl2750]

I’ve read all but the first one!!🎉😂

[@sophhnavarro]

OMG The Will of the Many! Yes

[@OliverPaulino]

And just like that, I've added half a dozen books to read on my shelf

[@FunFantasyBooks]

Hahahahah a job well done then!

[@Bookreader008]

I value your reviews and would appreciate your thoughts on "MANIPULATED LIVES: Unmasking Social Media's Shadow" by Harmander Singh. Considering your expertise, your insights would help me decide if it's worth a read., please review this underrated book😊

[@sumanpani]

I just finished of fire and blood and my goodness it has earned it's place in this life😅😅

[@FunFantasyBooks]

Ahahah yeah? I will read it next!!! Well, soon! Definitely this month lol! Thank you for recommending Suman!!

[@linasburrow]

Please please could you read The Five Warrior Angels trilogy by Brian Lee Durfee and review it for us? I trust your reviews a lot.

[@FunFantasyBooks]

Ahh thank you for the trust!! I can definitely try to schedule it at some point this year!

[@zachreads]

I agree about The Book That Wouldn't Burn it wasn't that great, and imo it stole a lot from Jim Butcher's Codex Alera. It is a bit of a crime that John Gwynne didn't make the list Shadow of the Gods is great

[@terryj33]

“The Will of The Many” was a horrible book. The 3rd book in “The Age of Madness” ruined the whole trilogy. This is how you know that there is an underside to BookTubers.

[@Potato_Disco]

This is an interesting take. Everyone I’ve seen who have read will of the many loved it. So I’m still gonna read it but it’s always refreshing to see some disagreements.

[@terryj33]

@@Potato_Disco I won’t ruin it for you. Reply here after you read it.

[@FunFantasyBooks]

Reading is subjective! Sorry to read it did not work for you! It was such a great read for me last year!

[@FunFantasyBooks]

I hope you enjoy it!

[@terryj33]

@@FunFantasyBooks yeah. I never enjoy that much plot armor. To each their own
