Resumen del Editor

Regan Earle was a robotics scientist that inadvertently caused the robot takeover of the world. When his last creation completes a decade-long plan to end his own life, he ends up surprised. Creation offers him a second chance to test his wits and cunning in another world. Fate, however, is fickle and Regan ends up as a Dungeon Core...with all his memories. Is the world of Murgin ready to face such a dungeon? Let's find out....

Earth 2150. Nearly 20 years since the robot uprising, where all AIs designed by inventor Dr. Regan Earle went rogue and started to take over the world. Or at least, that's what everyone thought until a year later Earle himself sent out a message. A message that stated his creations would shut down if he were killed. He even went so far as to place a beacon on top of his building that broadcasted his location. The humans fought against the machines for decades in a futile attempt to destroy the tower. Until one day....

Not Bad

I really Cant wait for the next one! It was really good. 3 words left.

nice twist with robots

I liked everything about this story the robots trapping their creator and his sacrifice in the beginning of the story. I only disliked how short the story was. I only wish that it could have been longer. I already downloaded the next two stories in the series.

great till last two chapters

week opening, turned into great relationship building and some fun interplay between charchters.
lots of long term goals are flushed out with some potincial for political drama being added in.

but the entire book falls down in the final two chapters, as multiple times for the sake of bad plot drivers the Intilligence, abilities, and power of charachters that the book has been building up, just ignores and bypasses thier presence in a wholly unbelievable series of events.

poor use of the setup, total ignorance in scope for the reader of the army buildup idea as they are never utilized, and finally the somehow omnipresence ability of an enemy to compltly bypass all of the very specifically created efforts to thwart this very thing from occurring is maddening heavy handed and ultimately just burns the previous four chapters worth of build up for a poorly written moment of self realization by the main protagonist.

ugg.

Love the person becoming dungeon concept

Slow and steady makes a good story of this kind to many go to fast to finish it before it really feels done

really good

I'm not sure if it's the author or the narrator but at one point he reads 'salt pepper' instead of salt peter

Story vs Narrators

First impression:
The story so far is good, but the male narrator needs to speed up a tad and female narrator needs to slow down. I swear, the female is trying to get it over with as quickly as possible. Honestly if they hadn't put the two different styles chapter to chapter it wouldn't be so bad. Also it would have better to have the female to read the female lines and male read male lines. That way it would allow us to have more immersion. (Yes, I know they have actual names, but this way is simplified for quick read and understanding.)

Overall impression: I enjoyed the story and besides the one error (salt pepper was used instead of salpetre) it was good if you can get past the previous issues in my first impression.

narration is trash, story good.

I'm pretty sure this was narrated by an AI, the female sounds a lot like Alexa, talks to fast and monotone and zero emotion. Take a freaking breath between sentences! The male voice isnt much better but at least it doesnt sound like an AI all though still badly monotone and without emotion. Listen for the story and try to ignore the narrator's.

Edit: the female narrator gets a 1 star, male narrator gets a 2 star.... new standard for later reviews. Could also be an editing issues but still both are trash.

There is an alternate story to this book same author same character's, different story, I listened to it first, and it is so much better.

Good dungeon entity story

The story is good but I kind of enjoy if the different people have different pitches or accents. I will need to be more pronounced to differentiate between different characters.

Can someone please edit this?? my god

the book is good so far but ive never seen anything like this awful editing. Here are some of the highlights...

""The adventurer party must have found a village with a sending stone; otherwise it should have taken another two or three weeks. The same could not be said if they reached a message through a messenger hawk or sending stone.""

even in the audiobook you can just hear the narrator thinking 'wtf' when they read that passage lol. Then their is:

"They would most likely be able to cleanse after a good night’s sleep, but most humans on Earth had different bodies."

most humans have different bodies. okay. not different capabilities or traits.

I could keep listing these but the story is full of them.

Brilliant!

A must have Dungeon Core story!
Stop deliberating, just get it!
You will not be disappointed.
