Resumen del Editor

It was just supposed to be a quick trip to the pet store for some cat food, but the universe had other plans for Florence Valentine.

Good for nothing kids and some annoying store employees were giving her a hard time, and then things got worse when she was killed by a delivery truck. Instead of angels, pearly gates, and eternal rewards, a voice in her head keeps telling her that she’s become a dungeon core, whatever that is.

Now people keep coming into her new home, wrecking stuff, and stealing from her. But not everything about this whole ordeal is bad. Not only can Florence decorate her home with a thought, but she can also create the best things in the entire universe — she can create kitty cats.

Should these hooligans keep insisting on coming into her home, well, Florence and her kitties are going to have something to say about that.

A fun take on a Dungeon Core! Plus Andrea Parsneau

This was an absolutely hysterical Dungeon Core story!!! 🤣
Here's what happens when a grumpy, irascible old cat lady, finds herself magically transported into another world. A world where she finds herself trapped as a dungeon-core! After the initial shock and confusion, she sets about building her Dungeon, though as far as Florence Valentine is concerned, it's not a Dungeon... it's her new home!!! Partnered with an AI assistant named Doug, whose every recommendation she steadfastly ignores, the Fun begins! Florence, makes every beginner-mistake imaginable, starting with not listening to any of the  rules for dungeons, nor listening to Doug!
And to add the AwesomeSauce, to an already great book, the audio version is narrated by the always wonderful, Andrea Parsneau!!! YAY! 👏😊👍

And I've collected a few quotes!

Let’s just settle in and wait for more victims—I mean adventurers

So the dungeon is just a grumpy old lady cat?

Never thought I’d see a goblin riding a cat, but we surely just did...

Her precious Zeus gave a smile, which of course was possible for a cat if you looked hard enough.

Uh, Florence, I think he’s a bit more than a simple skeleton. You are in the presence of a lich, and if I’m not mistaken, this is a very old and powerful one,”...  ...“What? He’s going to lick? How does he even do that without a tongue?

War Cat Mech, Level 5: Gnomish inventors combine technology and magic to create various incredible automatons to defend their home

You have learned the ability Deadly Doug.

...the cat mouth doorknocker spitting out flames directly into his face. The man crashed through the door but didn’t get up afterward. He was one crispy critter.
 

good read

has a bit of a rough start at the beginning, but push through and it's well worth it!

Cute and fun

Just cute and fun. Well paced, well structured, and sweet. I also love cats! Could have spent more time describing cats.

delightful cat dungeon

loved the narration. the main character was annoying at first but really grew on you as the story progressed

Gnomes are the best

Andrea does a good job. The book is an improvement over some of his other works.

The beginning is a bit painful story wise. The MC starts out pretty unlikable. She's selfish and self entitled. You ask yourself, "when does this book turn into dungeon core?!" And then she dies and that's when things really start. As a dungeon, she's less horrible.

fantastic book fabulous listen

this was the absolute funnest book to listen to. has to buy the next one and am listening to it now. I truly hope the series continues

Cute and enjoyable

If you're looking for something full of lore and world building, this is not it. This book is a quick and easy listen. It's full of cute cats with some of the most unfortunate names, a cranky old lady that is equal parts exasperating and endearing, and an interesting take on building a dungeon. There are also a bunch of nods to other litrpgs, if you listen closely enough and know what you're listening for... Dale... gnomes rule.... just to name a couple.

The narrator, as always, is great and really gives each character their own "voice" and personality.

There's only one thing that actually bothered me as a sticking point/plot hole. It's said that the dungeon can seal adventurers in, but then later, a foe escapes because it ran out through what should have been the sealed entrance. Other than that, I enjoyed listening to this book and would recommend it if you want something light and fun to listen to.

Satisfying and fun

Cat Core is fun, funny, entertaining and ends on a satisfying note. Many LitRPGs fall into a trap of being light on character depth, or skipping details, or some other issue that makes a read fun and memorable but not very satisfying. Cat Core is very different. Florence Valentine is an 86yo human woman who finds herself transformed into a dungeon core and we see things from her unique perspective for most of the story. Her decisions on how she builds out her dungeon Home with cat defenders--Domestic Cats--Cute not-so-little furballs who defend their Home fiercely--and the stories of the newbie adventurers who delve her Home are satisfying and I would recommend this to anyone who likes adventuring and Cats.

Most fun listening I have had in a while.

Just a fun story with lots of personality.

My wife who doesn’t like listening to audiobooks was also getting into it,

the voice actress was amazing

there was nothing I really did not like about this story it was campy and enjoyable
