About this listen

They thought sacrificing her would further their own goals. Instead, they changed an engineer into the single most powerful fabricator in existence, a dungeon core.

Alexandra Rousseau, an engineer from the European Federation Star Navy with a past darker than the void between the stars, is unexpectedly launched into hyperspace when an FTL jump goes horribly wrong.

She wakes in a world of magic and monsters, encountering a mysterious Order with plans millennia in the making. When the Order makes a catastrophic mistake, transforming Alexandra into a dungeon core, they inadvertently give her the power to bring back technology long since thought lost in this world. With it, she'll make the Order pay and avenge the friends they've taken from her.

First, she must survive those who would steal her core for their own benefit while keeping her true identity a secret from the adventurers looking to delve into her dungeon. If they knew the truth, the Adventurer Guild would seek to end her, and the Order would stop at nothing to finish what they started…

Imteresting to a point.

First part of the book was real good then it changed getting into the being a dungeon core part. Though i would like to know more of the tech but it not, its also magic which is confusing. Didnt get much in the dungeon building aspect of things, Or in the political intrigue brought on by the new land owners. This book left me wanting more but ended a little early before getting me interested in future events. And that christmas part idk what that was.

Very good...

Different and needed But this book is a build up for the series to come and the world building is done smoothly. The book is more of a 12 hour listen with a preview(Next book) and extra chapters for the last hour and half. No Harem which is a plus and Narration is flawless with Mare Narrating it!
I hope the next book comes out soon.

Considerably better than I could have hoped.

Within the LitRPG genre, I have found very few dungeon core books that were written with any real talent or craft. Most of them have been disappointing at best. Time-loop books represent the only other genre with a similar failure rate. There are just too many pitfalls for inexperienced authors in both of these genre’s.

With this in mind, I was pleasantly surprised by Dungeon Engineer. This book was well written and edited. More importantly, it didn’t get bogged down in dungeon mechanics and failed attempts at humor. The story was heavily character driven and weaves together several different plots in an effective manner.

If you are a GameLit fan but normally avoid Dungeon Core books for the reasons stated above then I recommend you give this one a shot. I am looking forward to the next installment.

The voice actor is a great character player.

I like the idea and the settings of the whole world. The main person is a little weak on combat from the hints that are throne out.

Great Start, Terrible Main Plot

There are two initial phases of this book before it transitions to the main dungeon core story, and I thought those were fantastic. The writing seemed intelligent and interesting, as did the characters. However, as soon as we entered the meat of the story, the dungeon core part, it was as if that section was written by the author's thirteen year old nephew. The main character's traits became self contradictory, the side characters were super boring, the dialogue was awkward, the story was boring, the magic system was ill conceived, the politics, economics, and business descriptions were unrealistic and poorly thought out, and really, the book just sucked. To make it worse, the engineer doesn't seem like she is able to actually engineer anything in her own dungeon, so the one potentially interesting part of the book, what we were promised in the summary, is nerfed. After reading the reviews for the sequel, it sounds like this, sadly, continues. What a terrible waste of a potentially awesome book.

this is not a dungeon core book

the blurb is a lie. the 2 hour prolong sets up for the blurb, but that's about it. honestly the MC isn't the core at all its some random chick. the book is really just geopolitics with lesbians. especially in the 2nd book 3/4ths of it has nothing to do with the dungeon it's just said random noble chick who is obsesses with the female elf. in the entire book there are only 2 delves into the dungeon. same for the second. the geopolitics is even worse in the second book. if I didn't buy the first 4 books on a major sale I wouldn't have gotten book 3 or 4. Just be prepared for not much dungeon action like at all. the POV jumes to the dungeon for like 5 minutes then the next 40 are with random chick. sooo yeah not a dungeon book it is a book about alya (random chick) and her buying the land around the dungeon then defending it from others. not much threat to the dungeon at all

MC is a mishmash of people

The MC is so contradictory . One sec she is whining about killing murderers who’ve come to steal her like it’s the worst thing in the world then she talks about nuking field hospitals cause she was ordered too. And that is like a day in her week. I would have liked her to be less ridiculous about being a dungeon especially with the insanely dark history she describes with casualness.
