We the book lovers, readers, artists, storytellers, dreamers and creatives from all walks of life come together as a community that celebrates the power of stories.

If you have a deep love for books & art, this community is for you. This book club is for the fantasy & sci-fi genres. These have inspired countless adaptations and many of our favorite IPs. These continue to inspire new stories everyday. These are part of our culture.

They stimulate our creativity & imagination.
Strengthen our emotional intelligence.
Provide escapism and emotional release.
Level up your storytelling and role-playing game.
Provide powerful material for reflection on the world and the human experience.
Help you connect with others.

In this group we like to read, draw & paint.

In between our monthly book club sessions we’ll be regularly hosting both online & in-person events to socialize, draw, paint and make new friends.

📖 Book Description:

It's the most-watched game show in the galaxy!

In a flash, every human-erected construction on Earth--from Buckingham Palace to the tiniest of sheds to all the trucks and cars--collapses in a heap, sinking into the ground.

The buildings and all the people inside, they've all been atomized and transformed into the dungeon: an 18-level labyrinth filled with traps, monsters, and loot. A dungeon so enormous, it circles the entire globe.

Only a few dare venture inside. But once you're in, you can't get out. And what's worse, each level has a time limit. You have but days to find a staircase to the next level down, or it's game over. In this game, it's not about your strength or your dexterity. It's about your views and your followers. It's about building an audience and killing those goblins with style.

You can't just survive here. You gotta survive big.

You gotta fight with vigor, with excitement. You gotta make them stand up and cheer. And if you do have that "it" factor, you may just find yourself with a following. That's the only way to truly survive in this game, with the help of the loot boxes dropped upon you by the generous benefactors watching from across the galaxy.

They call it Dungeon Crawler World. But for Carl, it's anything but a game.
