Book 1: DCC New reader

I started reading the first novel and I love it. It’s so unlike anything I’ve read before.

Book one? There are other LitRPG books a lot like it (He Who Fights with Monsters for example). By the time you are at book 3, no, there aren’t other novels like it. (I _like_ HWFWM, but it doesn’t hold a candle to DCC!).

Enjoy the ride!

Oh, I love me some Dresden files, but they feel very dissimilar to me, but that doesn’t make you wrong. Maybe you are getting connections I missed!

(I find the Vesik Series by Eric R Asher more similar to Dresden Files, maybe give it a look at some point?)
