Publisher's summary

The Dungeon falls silent. The trumpets of war sound nearer. The walls of our reality tremble.

Matt and many of his people are alive, and they've found a new ally, more or less, but the damage done to the dungeon and its future are beyond measure.

Time and great effort are needed to repair the cracks, to seal the warping and to rebuild, but the world after the fall isn't somewhere anyone can afford to wait around in. Matt and his people must push on, they must grow, they have to rise up if they are to have any chance of surviving, after all; The Nexus Gates are opening, and those that were hoped to be allies, or even one day friends, are not to be trusted . . .

Visitors will be coming soon, and who knows if a hand offered in friendship, hides a dagger . . . or a claw.

Automatic pre-order

I love this series. It's silly and fun and clever. The narration is also excellent. I'm looking forward to the next one.

Eh....

This one lacked a similar progression of the previous books. Stuff happens, but at the same time, nothing really happened for the length of this book. I skipped a few things simply because I just didn't care. There was some repeat of meditation and sex, which I just skipped, not interested. the end of the book was interesting, and it was a decent setup for the next one.

Filler book

Lots of filler in this book. Any portion of this book could have been part of another that actually progressed the story. Literally two important things happen, one is glossed over and forgotten right after it happens and the other is the cliff hanger at the end. Hope next book is better.

Jez and Neil combo

The writing of Jez is amazing as always but Niel does a fantastic job bringing it to life.

was a fun listen

I really enjoyed this one as it dealt with more behind the scenes and core mechanics of the dungeon, answering a lot of questions I've had in previous books.
