Dungeon Core Academy 1 Kindle Edition

You only live once…unless you’re resurrected to become the master of a dungeon.

When Beno died and was offered a second chance as a dungeon core, he dived right in. He joined the dungeon core academy, and he found himself in a new life where killing heroes wasn’t just accepted, but encouraged. Under the tutelage of the academy overseers, he learned how to make dungeons filled with monsters and traps.

Now he has finally been given his own dungeon, and he must pass his final test. Either build a dungeon powerful enough to slay heroes, or fail and get smashed up into core dust. He will apply all his diabolical dungeon strategy to succeed, but what happens when an unexpected visitor walks into his lair?

He used to live a normal life. Now he builds dungeons, creates monsters, and uses them to fight loot-hungry heroes.

5.0 out of 5 stars NIce addition to the Dungeon Core Genre
Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2019

This book was a quick read which I enjoyed. Told mostly from the Core's point of view. The premise is very interesting. I did notice more the a few typo errors, letters missing from words. That being said, I was entertained enough to read through in one sitting. I hope for another book with how the ending went.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting concept and a quick read
Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2020

The novel is written in a world with RPG/video game elements and presents an interesting concept from the view of a beginner dungeon master. It was a quick read (159 pages) that makes it more of a part 1 but I'm glad it wasn't dragged out for no reason. Safe to say I'm hooked into reading book 2.

3.0 out of 5 stars It's good but... Aggravating
Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2021

So I enjoyed the story for the most part, good characters and I laughed a lot. The commentary between everyone is good. The bad thing is this and the reason I had to stop reading at book 4, the author appears to have just left things out that happened in the last book. I.e he makes a monster that he makes his boss creature, it's there the whole book. Never dies doesn't go anywhere then the next book comes and there is zero mention of it. It just never existed anymore. It happens twice so far of the mc having a strong monster he can utilize in multiple ways or is actually quite good then the next book happens and poof it never existed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book!
Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2019

It's a new take on the dungeon core genre. Nothing particularly ground breaking but surprising in its freshness. There isn't a female fairy companion, the dungeon already knows everything it needs to. It is also not barred from making changes to the dungeon while people are in it. Definitely worth a read for fans of the genre.

I enjoyed how the core was taught at a collage and then had to set is dungeon up. Then use the collages one rules against them to survive. I also like the naming of the monsters he made and how he relates to them. Give it a shot

My biggest problem with this book is it is incomplete. If the second one were not already out I would dig it harder but otherwise if you accept the premise and like Dungeon Core novels this is a fun read.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fun read, some nice differences from similar stories.

I enjoyed reading this. It was a fast read for me. I have read quite a few of the new "from the dungeon's viewpoint" books. This is has one main difference, no secondary character like a dungeon fairy. In other ways, it was similar.

If there's one thing this novel has in abundance, it's personality. Tons and tons of it. The writing is both stylish and exuberant and flows in a smooth easy glide that keeps you hooked from start to finish. The characters are simply marvelous and the dialogue is at times laugh-out-loud funny. Highly recommended.

Not a lot of meat in the bones of this story, but what it does have its entertaining. Book 2 is our already and I think they should've been a single book.

This is the first book in an excellent series; (two books so far with the third hopefully soon). This is a fun new take on dungeon cores, being funny and intelligent with fun monsters and without f bombs and unpleasant harem themes. Buy it now !!
