"Welcome to the Gun Show!

The top 10 list is populated. The sponsorship program is open. The difficulty is ramping up. The first three floors were nothing compared to what Carl and Donut now face.

The Iron Tangle. An impossibly complicated subway system built out of the world's subterranean railway systems, all combined and then tied together into a knot. Up is down. Down is up. Close is far. The cars are filled with monsters, the railway stations are less than safe, and the exit is always just a few stops away.

But there is hope. For the first time, the crawlers are all working together. The loot is better than ever. And the secret to unraveling it all may be hidden in the pages of a seemingly useless book.

Welcome, crawlers. Welcome to the fourth floor of the dungeon."

My Rating: 4.25/5

I enjoyed the character development in this third instalment. The plot twists and the change of pace were interesting. I was grateful that the author started this book with the warning that it was confusing and not to worry about it that everything would come together in the end. That being said, it was still a lot of exposition and explanation. It did burn me out a bit, and we (my husband and I, since we're buddy reading) will be taking a little break. I hope to pick up the next one before the end of the year.
