Meet the Alexes

Dungeon of Tahilia, Book 1

De: Burt Wrenlaw

Narrado por: Graham Halstead

Welcome! Please, make yourselves at home! Dungeon Rules are posted over there. You break 'em, and Baron Grimes will break your kneecaps. Piss him off badly enough, and he'll cave your head in. Really piss him off, and he'll string up your friends and family in front of you as you bleed out to death.

Just kidding! He'll probably just fine you . . . while knocking you around silly.

Anyhow, beds are ten copper per head per night. Complementary meals are served in the dining hall.

You can get in touch with Merchant Liszviel if you are looking for amenities outside the dungeon. She'll be more than happy to accommodate you if you've got the coin.

Oh, and I know the Dungeon Rules are over there, but I have to say this upfront: please avoid harming, killing, or forcing yourselves upon myself or the other Alexes in full view of other guests. That happens frequently enough to make some guests feel squeamish. At least talk it out with one of us before getting down to whatever floats your boat.

And please disregard any ideas that we Alexes are people or something. We have no souls inside our hollow shells, for we are merely walking piles of meat sculpted by the dungeon to serve as its proxies.

Spoilers!!! (And not from me)

The first chapter seems to have a time skip in it. Half way through you come to the end of the chapter but instead of going to chapter 2 you skip ahead to about the mid point of the book.

A different take on dungeon core

I've gone through my fair share of dungeon core, and this book stands out. The world is filled with flawed people, and one strange dungeon, all doing their thing. There is little in the way of progression, but the book doesn't need that to keep the reader engaged.

Want to be entertained? It'll deliver.

I'm not one for words, so I will merely note that it's a good book that deserves more attention than it has received. I took a chance, and I'm thankful I did.

Interesting Premise that got Boring

The story had an interesting premise, but it got boring pretty fast.

Also, its just a bit difficult for me to actually listen to a man abusing his wife. Which is repeatedly described. I had a real problem with it, and it made it difficult to get through.

The concept of a dungeon making mobs that would suit any needs was interesting, but also very disturbing.

If there is a book #2 I won't be listening to it.

new take

very good take on dungeon core I usually wouldn't call this a dungeon core but it takes a fun look on what a dungeon would do for a friend voice acting is pretty good
Hope they fix a huge editing mistake that made its way through
