The Dungeon Book

Enter a world of dungeons and dragons, magic and manticores, goblins and gargoyles in this captivating standalone fantasy from the author of The Gutter Prayer

Full of wit and adventure, twists and turns, wonderful monsters and astonishing revelations. An absolute joyM. R. Carey, bestselling author of Once Was Willem

Bait doesnt remember a time before the dungeon. Before the dragon stole her from her cot. She doesnt know what her name was before she was handed over to the monstrous denizens of the dungeon beneath the sorcerers tower. Luckily for Bait, they decided not to eat her. And so, she grows up in the dark - the goblins her adopted family, a vengeful minotaur her protector, a sentient skull her tutor and a faithful blob of corridor slime her main source of nutrition.

But the labyrinthine dungeon, with its haunted halls, buried temples and forgotten magics, draws treasure hunters like moths to a flame. And as the outside world starts to intrude, Bait will learn what it means to be monstrous, and she will have to decide where she truly belongs.

For a story set in the deepest, darkest dungeon, The Dungeon Book absolutely bursts with warmth, heart, and energy. One of the best things youre going to read this year
