About this listen

In a distant world five times the size of planet Earth, dungeons and their dungeon cores have become the top of the food chain.

Millions of dungeons inhabit the planet, utilizing the various human kingdoms as a source of much-needed mana to facilitate their own growth; in turn, the humans delve into the dungeons and acquire their own power in the form of essence, which allows them to develop and enhance themselves in a multitude of different ways.

It is a symbiotic relationship that has lasted centuries and has brought about a measure of peace.

Far in the Northern wilds where no humans (and therefore - no dungeons) regularly frequent, a young man is left alone when his parents are murdered suddenly and unexpectedly.

Now, without friends, family, or even supplies, he embarks on a journey to find out who targeted his parents - and upon whom he needs to enact his revenge.

Along the way, he discovers something about himself that his parents said was impossible from the moment he was born.

Will he learn to control the new powers he has gained, or will his newly awakened dungeon core abilities consume him?

Contains LitRPG elements such as statistics and leveling. No harems and no profanity.

I started this series with very little expectation, the whole perspective of the narrative seemed strange to me.

I have literally just finished this series and I have to say, it is absolutely incredible. The whole thing is a fascinating delve into the mind of essentially the unsung/invisible elements that comprise some of my favourite games, in various ways!

Extremely well written and thought out!

Incredible work.

Fascinating insight into the untold story

Thankfully this book does NOT contain the erotica that other LitRPG authors are fond of.

A very easy and enjoyable listen.

An interesting idea behind how a world and character can be done in litrpg with a decent twist.

This series focus is on the main character that is a "dungeon core(think dungeon keeper)"/adventurer mix in a quest for retribution.

Interesting concept and I quite like the narration, if quite basic, it does what it needs to do.

My only minor problem is that they "stat sheets" are overdone, there's no real point in listing every 0/x skill if the characters never seem to put any less than full amounts to next level into them anyway.

great concept with decent execution.

A bit of a slow start to set the scene, but a great book overall. Once the basics are established, the story takes some good turns and I look forward listening to book 2!

Slow start, great book
