      It’s a reference to the Dungeon Crawler Carl series of books. If you haven’t read them, I can’t recommend them enough. The audiobooks are also incredibly well done.

        They are absolute garbage.

        If you thought Ready Player One was good and you like reading self-published internet fanfic, though, knock yourself out.

          I’m sorry you didn’t enjoy them. I don’t feel like there is much similarity between DCC and Ready Player One personally. I didn’t care for the protagonist in Ready Player One, and the whole story revolved around pop culture references. DCC has likable main characters in my opinion, and any pop culture references are very few and far between and have no impact on the story.
