great story, stiff narration

Male actor was easy to listen to. Woman actor was pretty much just reading. She had decent voices but was difficult to listen too.

Enjoyable

I personally love dungeon core books and I love a super smart character who's putting his immense intellect to work in unique ways. If that's your thing then this might be a series for you

amazing

I loved this book and I cant wait to listen to the next one when it comes out

excellent

you want to know the only problem I have with this series so far..... the books ain't longer. otherwise..... EXCELLENCE!

editors needed

I think a draft chapter for Regan got shoved in the last third of the book, as if the author had written the chapter from two viewpoints. the chapter won't make a lot of sense as it's in the wrong order. the following two chapters make much more sense and that's when I realized it was some form of draft chapter

Great story, needs more polish

Captivating world building and an interesting plot are held back by slightly stilted performance. Possibly could have used a bit more editing as one section is almost a copy paste of another and seems out of order.

Serviceable story when it's not cringy or weebish

about like third of this story is decent enough world building/dungeon building and other things in a story like this I enjoy. less than the first book, but it's not inherently worse than the last book in quality.

about about another third was non offensive, if a bit amateur quality writing, side character stuff, plotlines I personally didn't find very interesting, that kind of stuff. no hate towards that as my tastes aren't everyone's, and i'de rather an author try and fall flat on giving his characters plotlines than to just have this be the 'MC goes around interacting with souless droids' show.

it's the last third that gets me. the last third is some of the cringiest, neckbeardiest, weebiest shit I've read in years. I truly mean this, I'm no prude, this doesn't have to be Tolkien, but it's bad dude. most of it revolves around every sentient robot he makes with the one exception of Jarvis, and kinda the one from earth. the author is telling a story about a guy that makes high tech robotics Isekai'd into a generic fantasy world, but is still determined to throw as much weeb references and tropes as he can. this also makes like 0 sense as he comes from like 150 years in the future, and exclusively makes pop culture references that are relevant now, including the animeisms. how wierd would it be if the main character in re:zero kept referencing popular plays from the civil war era? not because he has been stated to be a history buff, but because of all of pop culture, whatever reminds him of a 1867 play he just so happened to know and love.

TL:DR: found a third of the book to be good, a third non offensive or personally not appealing, and a third mega weeb neckbeard cringeville. if you can deal with that then pick it up, otherwise don't.

the book was fine

there were a lot of characters that were absurdly annoying and I couldn't tell if we're just there for fans service or were meant for later books.

I like where the story is going

Book 2 introduces more backstory to the world, has some great action, and it’s fun to see how the dungeon host handles a plethora of problems that come his way. The dungeon is starting to feel like it might be a little too overpowered, but it’s still reasonable at the moment. Hopefully this will not get too out of control and unbelievable as the series progresses. So far, this is an interesting series with potential. The narration could benefit from more emotion and the readers matching their pacing better. Not a deal breaker, but something to know going in.

Not sure. Good story.

I am enjoying the story quite a lot. It is not written the best but still fun and engaging. My big problem it the narrators. The male is slower then the female and sometimes they don’t do well with character speech. I am not sure if that part is the narrators themselves just not doing a good job or the writing of the talking.
