@fkaOctaviaKeats@wandering.shop "Mogworld" by Ben Croshaw or "How To Become A Dark Lord And Die Trying" by Django Wexler? Neither is a straight take on the setup, but my opinion is that one of the (many) reasons Carl is ass is specifically because of the straight take.

@fkaOctaviaKeats@wandering.shop Uh, so a book where aliens invade and force humanity to play a game? How about Space Opera by Catherynne M. Valente? Or, getting further away, Player of Games by Iain M. Banks?

@fkaOctaviaKeats@wandering.shop I found The Black Tongue Thief to be more engaging and more funny than Dungeon Crawler Carl personally. But I also found I didn't like litRPG at all, so I don't know if I'm the guy to ask.
