When Montana first started playing in iNcarn8, his new game life, he just wanted to be one of the good guys for a change. But despite his impressive stats and incredible heroics, even his closest followers are just plain scared of him. Trouble keeps pouring down Montana, even in the remote, supposedly safe holding he's building into his dukedom.


All that will have to change if Coggeshall is going to survive. Walls go up and homes get built, but Montana can't shake the feeling that none of it will be enough to keep out the problems of the Empire. Or the world of Vuldranni.


Dukes and Ladders is the fifth book in The Good Guys LitRPG series. It's half town-building grinding, half action-adventure epic, and all thoroughly good fun.

Eric ran away from Seattle to join the circus. And then he came to his senses, and moved to Manhattan. Now he's a novelist in Los Angeles. Don't worry, it doesn't make sense to him either.

4.0 out of 5 stars Solid Improvement over Book 4
Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2019
Verified Purchase
I've enjoyed this series since book 1, but it has had its ups and downs along the way. For me, book 4 was the biggest dip yet. The game announcements and information was at an all time low, and the story arc seemed to peter out a little bit into a series of quests/actions.

The good: the action is more consistent, the plot line is tighter and more satisfying and the character arc is solid. I do think the series has lost some of the charm it had in the first three books, but that has been replaced by grittiness and more significant emotional issues.

The not quite so good: the first quarter or third of the book is a bit aimless, as our MC turns into a whiner. I found this frustrating and somewhat unbelievable, as he has led people through a killer dungeon, through life and death situations in Osterstadt, and in travelling across the wilds. But now, all of sudden, he feels he can't be a leader to his people. I felt it was at odds with who the MC had been in previous books, and while this is a new situation I didn't expect him to simply run away from his responsibilities.

Once this is resolved, the book picks up steam and the action starts rolling. The ending is solid, and I have already pre-ordered book 6.

Overall, this is still a fun series. and I read the book in one sitting, start to finish despite the points I made above. The extra notifications do help bring this back into gamelit/light LitRPG territory which is nice as well. A definite improvement over book 4, and the best setup yet for the next book in the series.

4/5*

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Excellent addition to Montana's Adventure in Vuldranni
Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2019
Verified Purchase
If I had had time off from work I probably would have only stopped reading Duke's and Ladders to sleep. I enjoy the humor and the action that swirls around Montana's every footstep on Vuldranni. The phrasing of the notifications for game mechanics continue to make me smile. Although I think my favorite was in an earlier book in the series when Montana uses a table to attack some guards.

I've already pre-ordered the next book in this series. I will be happy to read on and I'm considering rereading the whole series. But I may wait until shortly before June so it's all fresh.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ending are always good
Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2019

The author always makes you want to start the next book immediately. All the books have good development plot, characters, and the mechanics are okay. I am not a big fan on the classes or how little the MC keeps up with skills. He does a fairly good job on stats and quests. He pretty much ignores exp which okay but skills progess and the double skill points are completely forgotten.

With all that i have been really enjoying these books and about to start the next. I hope there will be more in the future.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good, but could use more snark
Reviewed in the United States on April 11, 2019
Verified Purchase
As usual, Montana is in over his head. The author does a great job of inventing all sorts of new ways for Montana to get into strange situations.

The good:
The plot and character development is good. The biggest fight has a surprise ending I didn't expect.

The bad:
This book, like the last one, seems to be too short despite the 300+ page count.
And it doesn't seem to have enough snark in it like the first book did.
And the current monster companion is unable to talk, which doesn't help my need for more snark.
The missing 50+ stat points from book 3 were apparently assigned without telling us, as the newest status page now has increases across nearly every stat.

But despite my complaints, I still enjoyed the book and will be pre-ordering the next.

5.0 out of 5 stars More chaos and fun
Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2020

Poor Montana just wanted to find an empty lake and spend the rest of his life fishing...alone. So, naturally, he ends up being responsible for an entire dukedom and a bunch of people (who may not all like one another that much).

Of course, things go smashingly well (emphasis on the smashing part) and he makes a few friends (who may or may not have an even greater number of enemies).

Enjoyable read, but don't start the series here. Each book leads directly into the next.

Yet again I find myself staying up far too late reading an installment of the adventures of Montana in a single sitting. No hesitation in recommending this book and series to any gamelit fan, or fantasy fans looking for something a touch different. I will not go into further detail, it is 2am and my mind is too fuzzy for specific praise, but I have absolutely no complaints.

4.0 out of 5 stars Still interesting
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 6, 2020

Story has slowed down a little as Montana builds up his town. Little bit of a drag but still interesting and I am sure the action will build up shortly, knowing the game is much bigger than expected with several interested parties in the hunt.

For some reason the author has decided to not let any single female character build up to be the main lead, that said some new characters have been introduced and a new potion.
