suprisingly refreshing

this dungeoncore series suprisingly refreshing so far, actually using the materials and physics to make things with magic being the glue. less game mechanics than other dungeoncore books ive listend to wich also gives some room for great story developement

Very good dungeon building novel

Previously I read the Divine Dungeon series by Dakota Krout which I enjoyed but often found implausible logic when it came of why the dungeon lets in adventurers and why he isn't protecting itself properly. Matthew Peeds approach has some similarities but he succeeded in making it believable as well as plausible while entertaining the reader. I'm looking forward to the stories development but for now it was a good read - only diminished a bit by its length. In comparison to other hobby-writers this book was also well written with just a few errors (word doublers) which is really rare in the LIT-RPG sector.

As toward the narrators I will start with a positive point. I don't like multiple narrators for one book but it somehow worked surprisingly well for this one. Sadly the narrators lacked proper equipment, especially Gabriel Vaughan (male) lacked quality. Nicole Poole was much better and despite my praise for the dual narration the book would have been better if only she had narrated it.

the story is interesting but...

The story is a nice idea, I like that the hero dungeon, from a modern world, brings modernity in some ways with him. What i like most is that the Hero dungeon uses industrial methods to improve himself. This is very fresh.

Sadly the heroes aren't challanged in this story. stuff happens and whatever they need to do they are either are able to or just so happen to have prepared for this. There is also little explanation of the world or its magic system, what is explained is higly interesting, this is limited to magic and physics interactions, combat magic is still unknown to me. i find it hard to feel any tention if i dont know what might happen.

Generaly all characters have a go with the flow attitude. For example, when things are done that are unexplainable or revolutionary to other magic user it has no consequences. This is odd since in the beginning it is established that this world is stagnant for a very long time by now. Abilities are also reused or not reused in strange ways. Things like deflectable fireballs are flung like candy but higly efficient lasers are used once.

There are some things that make sense, like shields and spears being used but there are also double wielder, even a ninja type that has 2 katanas and is described in a Hollywood type black cloth ninja.

slight spoilers in the next paragraph:

The last hour of the audiobook is better with some challange being presented and preparations made making sense. They also use abilties that they showed off before. Even if the challange itself comes seemingly out of nowhere and still poses no real danger.

no more spoilers!

It doesn't help that the readers read quite fast and with little emotions.

I dont know how I wanna rate this overall. since I finished it without days long breaks I supoose it is not terrible but it could have been so much better and seeing this potential unused is frustrating.

Good lit rpg

Mrs. Lady speaker, for the love of the voice, please slow down. Refreshing new Setup. I like the crafting aspect, but the progression was too fast.
