About this listen
Shattered by tragedy, consumed with rage, a young man surrenders his soul for the power to destroy humanity in the first novel of this dark fantasy series.
After the death of his beloved mother, Swain is left at the mercy of his drunken father. His only respite from all the beatings and abuse lies in the words he scribbles down, seeking beauty in an ugly world through poetry. He has no friends until one day he meets a girl near his mother's grave. A restless spirit who calls herself Goose, over the years she encourages Swain's creativity, eventually helping him tap into a magical ability he never knew he possessed: a dark energy entwined with his despair, fueled by his anger, and controlled by his poetic verse.
But this revelation is swiftly followed by a cruel betrayal that devastates Swain. Unleashing his power, he transforms into the Demon King and spreads a plague across the land, infecting every living creature in his path. He knows there's beauty to be found among the base and selfish people he encounters—the graceful dancer, the perfectionist painter, the master chef—and he twists their artistic desires to serve him. Hollowed out and reborn as undead entities, they join the corrupted army of inhuman beings bent on conquering those the Demon King believes allowed the world to become a horrid ruin.
Ruhr, the half-elf river-sorceress adventurer, is in the city when it's besieged by demonic forces. The invasion is her opportunity to earn royal wealth and favor. But while her water magic purifies the monstrous legion, the Demon King marches on to remake the world according to his warped vision of beauty . . .
The first volume of the hit LitRPG fantasy series—with more than 300,000 views on Royal Road—now available on Audible and wherever ebooks are sold!

Story
Ashlock wakes in the courtyard of a demonic sect... as a tree. A tree that eats people. An odd start to a new life. Almost as strange as the humans flying through the skies on flaming swords and challenging the heavens. After all, this is a world where humans could chase the goal of immortality through the art of cultivation. But Ashlock is merely a sapling in a desolate courtyard, left alone with his thoughts and unable to speak to those passing him by. Unless he does something about it.

Zaria was just a normal woman, living a simple life—until demons burst through her door and ate her heart. Reborn from tragedy, Zaria rises from the ashes as a Core, but with a twist. A rare mutation has turned her into a Mutant Core, destined to explode unless she forms a bond with a human witch to become a Striga. Her mutation? Legs. With the power of a full dungeon compressed into a walking house that is her body, Zaria sets out on a journey to find her Striga and avoid detonation. Along the way, she battles demons, builds her dungeon, and feeds her mimic mobs.

Fight, survive, adapt, and rely only on yourself. That is Derek’s creed and what's got him through the System Integration on Earth. Everything changed when the System came. Cute bunnies and beautiful butterflies became savage killing machines. Then the Invaders arrived with a single goal: to obtain ownership of this new habitable planet. War has raged ever since. None of this mattered much to Derek, aside from making living a little more perilous.

Luckily, Kers has the sarcastic (and sometimes helpful) fairy Selena to help him get his bearings. Together, the pair delight in exploring Kers’ weird existence, creating novel mobs, and enticing adventures to plumb the lofty heights of his floors.

Story
Reborn into a fantastical RPG-system based world, Fresh is offered a second chance at life. Initially glad to have escaped her old existence, she quickly realizes that this new one might not be much better. Her new body is too frail to follow any grand dreams of adventure, her new mind is too dulled to allow any meticulous planning or thought, and this new, seemingly colorful, kind world is anything but.

When Kers is reborn as a dungeon core, he finds himself stuck in the most improbable of places: a cloud. High in the sky and far away from the usual solid resources, Kers must face the obvious question: How is a dungeon to build itself without wood or stone? Luckily, Kers has the sarcastic (and sometimes helpful) fairy Selena to help him get his bearings. Together, the pair delight in exploring Kers’ weird existence, creating novel mobs, and enticing adventures to plumb the lofty heights of his floors.

Hidden away behind layers of clothing and just as many walls and doors, he only ever leaves the house in the dead of night, so that neither the gods or anyone else can ever see him. However, on one of these night-tide outings, he finds that has gained the unwanted attention of what is seemingly a perfectly normal owl.

After he died, conman Jake thought he made a good deal with the System. Turns out, the System swindled him. He woke up in an upside-down world with four furry legs and the powers of a mind-warping necromancer at his hoof tips. Humans are the servants, farm animals are the demon masters, and amid the mayhem, Jake finds meaning in his new life. Building out a barnyard kingdom and ritualizing the remains of his foes makes for some pretty sweet fire-breathing abilities.

The usual result of a human taking a runaway semitruck head-on is a very sudden, very fast track to the pearly gates. But for one newly noncorporeal man, there's another option: become a dungeon. Feeling sorry for the desperate angel assigned to him, the man relents. Heck, if it doesn't work out, he can always chat with Saint Peter about it later. Next thing you know, he's a dungeon. Admittedly, a small run-down, somewhat unimpressive dungeon (more of a house, actually), but you gotta start somewhere, right?

Ryker only has one goal in his life right now: Turn a certain adventuring guild into a flaming wreck while dancing merrily through the smoldering ruins. All for the chance to get back at a handful of people. It isn’t as if they didn’t deserve it either. They had driven him from his home. Chased him physically from the very guild house itself. Simply because he wasn’t as strong as they expected him to be. As strong as he’d expected himself to be. He’d returned the next day and left with something he’d hidden away and told no one about when he found it in one of his few Dungeon Dives.

Milton Frederick never had the chance to live out his life as a professional gamer on Earth, mainly because he was abducted by aliens. Unfortunately, he wasn’t returned home after the typical probing associated with such things to tell an unbelievable story to his friends. Instead, he was summarily killed, and his consciousness was inserted into a Station Core, a giant metal egg-shaped object that could use technology to create traps, Combat Units, and other defenses to protect not just himself, but those he cared about.

Decent except one lingering thing
The narration is wonderful, the story is good fun, but the stats and descriptions are a bit too frequent. It felt unnecessary to constantly refer to the characters names, status, and location every single time it was their turn to have their story told. I would have preferred to have been made aware of those things through typical storytelling elements rather than hear an introduction prompt each time. That said, I really enjoyed the characters, the dialogues between each other, and the use of artists by the MC.
Instead of your normal monster fantasy troupes, the MC uses strategies and abilities in a slightly different fashion that I found pretty interesting and refreshing. All in all, I’m curious to see how the author adapts and am excited to check out his next work. Keep it dark and brutal and I’ll definitely keep spending credits.
Also, Armen Taylor really nailed the voices. Especially the Demon King’s.

not what I was expecting based on the description but a pleasant surprise. I do recommend this book and not just because the pursuit of beauty is relentless.

Wow
This is one of the reasons you don’t judge a book by its cover. I was expecting a light hearted dungeon core book. What I got was a well written and detailed story. Some of the amazing details that wen’t into describing the eldrich horrors even made me go oh god. I can’t wait for the next book to come out.

At first it was a bit weird, but once you get used to the writing style it becomes a wonderful journey into a real horror show. Masterfully done and I can't wait for the next one. I love it.

Fantastic Narrator
If your looking for a typical dungeon core story this is not it. If your looking for an evil mc who is unabashedly evil but not cruel this is for you. Swain is just a normal kid at the beginning. he loses his mother and his dad spirals and becomes an abusive drunk. He tries to find beauty in writing poetry but everyone mocks him for it except one girl. he finds himself falling in love with this girl over the years only to discover he magically brought her to life with his poetry the girl tricked him into writing a poem to return her to death betraying swains feelings and using him to be brought back to the afterlife. in a fit of rage seeing the world as lacking beauty he uses his poetry to become the demon king to destroy the world to find true beauty.it's more nuanced but that's the gist of the first chapter. I tried looking for the first chapter on royal road because the description mentions it was there but it's not anymore so I couldn't check it out before I bought it. the narrator does a fantastic job bringing out the dark emotions in Swains tone while still being able to make the regular other characters feel unique.

Incredibly dark and brutal yet sprinkled with humo
Narrator was amazing with his performance, I have nothing but positivity. Story was dark yet refreshing, brutal and imaginative. I yearn for more evil or morally gray mcs. The only things that I didn't like was the constant status update, the name and location was fine but gender and level over and over.
Maybe on a written medium that is ok, but in an audiobook, it is a bit repetitive. I love the banter between river mage and soldier, felt real and gave me a light chuckle.
Overall the story timeline seemed to progress a bit too fast, the demon lord just got out and everyone seems to have deployed armies in mere days from continents away. Saying that, I loved the book and will continue the story.

Dark and gritty without overdoing it
Started a little slow and confusing but picks up quickly and gets you into each attack from the demon king. Although very good and fun, the jumping around characters’ stories can get a bit jarring.

Another fantastic book by Razz
This is a great dark fantasy book, I’m excited to listed to the next part. It really stands out from the usual series talked about in the LitRPG / Dungeon Core circles. We get to see the plot play out from multiple, very fleshed out perspectives, the characters are rich and unique while avoiding being cliche, and the story itself is unique. It’s dark for sure, but it also isn’t a story that glorifies the MC or tries to make them seem cool like so many other books with anti-hero MCs.
Between this and Final Core Razz has two of my top rated LitRPGs now. I hope they keep writing!
