(TOMS RIVER, NJ) -- Matt Dinniman, New York Times bestselling author of the Dungeon Crawler Carl series, will chat about his latest book, A Parade of Horribles, during a virtual author talk on Thursday, June 11, 2026  presented by the Ocean County Library. The event begins at 7:00pm.

As chaos and mass panic spread outside the dungeon in the wake of Faction Wars, Carl and Donut fund themselves on the tenth floor, where they’re forced to compete in a surprisingly normal set of tasks. Well, normal for a dungeon.
