Publisher's summary

Build. Evolve. Conquer. Welcome to the dawn of a whole new kind of monster....

Roark von Graf built a nation on the bodies of griefed players and disgruntled mobs who wanted him dead. He grinded his way up to the level cap of the Troll Evolutionary Path and made powerful underhanded alliances along the way, but even all of that isn’t enough to defeat the Tyrant King’s right-hand mage, Lowen, and the Divine armies of the most powerful dungeon in the game.

When Lowen and the Vault of the Radiant Shield go on the attack, Roark’s only hope of survival lies in the stolen World Stone Pendant and its mysterious transmutation magic. To stand a chance against the overpowered mage, he’ll have to unlock the game-changing cheat that is Mega-Evolutions.

But while Roark and his Troll Nation are entrenched in an all-out battle for survival, the Tyrant King is preparing to unleash his hidden weapon - one that will hit Roark where he’s most vulnerable....

From James A. Hunter, author of the litRPG epic Viridian Gate Online, and eden Hudson, author of Path of the Thunderbird and the Jubal Van Zandt series, comes an exciting new litRPG dungeon-core adventure you won’t want to pause!

Another great book from James Hunter

The rogue dungeon series has been great. Super fresh take on litrpg in general and book4 was no exception. As always Nick Podehl crushed it. 4.95/5 but only because i wasn't ready for it to end <3

A lot happens

I'll be straightforward, this might be my least favorite of the series so far. so much happens that I began to lose interest, but there are many highlights (evolutions, dragon fight, pwners, the twist, and the relationship between everyone of course) but something about it felt like a lot to take in.

I am happy it moves the story forward and I'm still excited to continue. Maybe a second playthrough would change my mind, it's not bad or anything it just didn't capture the moments from the other books that kept me intrigued. They seemed like they kinda just happened.

Also I really enjoy the revealing of reality and their powers IRL.

still got love for the author and narrator tho, on to book five!

Owned

Well Well Well. Here we are smack dab in the middle of an epic world endie situation and it's starting to hit the fan. The Real World is colliding with the Game World that's colliding with an Alternate World. The Karmic Cycle resets and portals here and there and elsewhere start entering the fray. But it's all good cuz the gold and rare items keep on dropping.

more more more

cant get enough of this series!!! great writing and characters! I'm looking forward to this series in the future.

Epic

Rogue evolution is taking this serious to a whole Nother level of my book. I can’t wait to see what comes then the direction of the story is getting better and better with every book.

Laughed my ass off

So fun, so funny. The writing and narration amazing. Pwoner Boner is so funny. Lol. Really enjoy this series

Can't wait for the next book!!!!

I loved this book as always the new spell and character development for the story development are flawless and flowing it never has the feeling of being forced or tapping just to happen this book was an absolute treat.

We bout to run this shit

Love this series and of course Nick is the man at telling the story like no other. Can’t wait for the next

Pacing is off, but still a great read

Roark is looking for an edge against Lowen and his forces and is coming up empty. Roark gets an uncomfortable visit from someone in his past. So now Roark has to think of the craziest idea in order to try to make his goals happen. The short of it is that if you like the previous books in the series then you are going to like this one too. It is more of the characters we like and yet goes deeper into who each one is. This book was a great look into how the Troll Nation is changing and the people in it, and their roles in it, are changing too. Oh, and remember Roark used the pendent on the PC allies? Yeah, well the consequences of those actions may even follow the players into their world.

The one downside to this book, as great as it is, is that the pacing seems... jumpy. The characters will be dealing with an issue and its over, then its like an undefined amount of time passes and something else happens. It is not the biggest issue I've come across but it makes the moments mentioned feel like smaller arcs rather than a complete story when you might feel like you missed something. Some readers/listeners may not mind this but I thought I would mention it.

Nick Podehl still does amazing things with the stories he reads. I would recommend him to anyone.

wow

wow this book was amazing the character development, the action, the comedy fantastic book highly recommend
