About this listen

All that Tacca Gloom Lily ever wanted to be since she was very little was a fairy assistant to a Dungeon Core. After her negatively portentous birth, however, she was never fully accepted by her superstitious peers and instructors at the Dungeon Assistant Preparatory School; nevertheless, she persisted in her studies and graduated at the top of her class.

Unfortunately for her, the “hands-on” training she was supposed to receive from a Mentor and his Bonded Dungeon Core didn’t go the way she would’ve hoped. In fact, the stigma attached to her origins finally made itself known in the form of horrendously “bad luck”; the rotten part of her newly discovered luck was that it adversely affected Cores that she happened to be near, and not just herself.

What can a Dungeon Assistant Fairy do when every Dungeon Core she gets near ends up being destroyed? Tacca had no idea, but a solution eventually presents itself - though it’s one that she never saw coming....

This story contains Dungeon Core elements such as dungeon construction and defense, LitRPG/GameLit mechanics such as character progression and stats, and contains no harems/sexual content or profanity.

Decent story, but.....

Overall I'd say this book is worth a listen. But there is one thing the author does in this book that a lot of litrpg authors do that really irritates me. Its something I call padding. Example of this is when stats are explained, this is used to pad the word count of the book. Its repeated over and over and over again and again. There is no reason to tell me in the same thing in the story or same chapter for that reason, the stats of someone when they haven't changed. In a list of stats strength, agility, charisma, intelligence etc. If any of these change by even 1 point, these authors spend the next 5 - 15 minutes going over the entire character sheet again. And given its a stats based system it happens so many times. Why? there is no other reason than padding the word count. In this book you spend at least 1/3 of the entire book listen to the same things over and over. Its really annoying. If it wasn't for the performance and the general plot being interesting I would have stopped half way through.

Good

Very slow to start. The build up to the main story took over half the book. That was exhausting but once into story it was excellent.

Great book just like all of the rest

Loved it as much or more then all of this authors other books. Miles Meili reads them all accept his glendaria books and core of fear.... I think he does an amazing job in his performance with them all and he hit this one out of the park as well. The book had a slow start if your expecting dungeon mechanics right of the bat and is somewhat crunchy however most of the crunch is in separate skippable chapters so if your not into it you can skip the majority if not all of it.

This is such a fun take on fantasy adventure stories

I actually started this series with the second book and this was still great and worth the listen. I love this author’s works and I definitely recommend this hapless dungeon fairy series. The only hard spots are when the narrator reads a full long table but it is great even then to know what the options are even if not chosen.

nice new twist

great dungeon core story with a twist to make it extra interesting.
there isn't a whole lot of character development yet, but it's hinted that there will be more once all the moving pieces are introduced.
However there is loads of interesting dungeon expansions and mobs.

Miles does pretty well even if I'm not overly impressed with some of the choices he made for certain characters.

dungeon core book

it's a overall good book. the biggest problem that really this book separates from is you have to enjoy the dungeon core genres in order to understand and not be annoyed by the genres tropes. good character development, interesting idea about the assistance, overall good writing.

Fun!

I love dungeon core books and this was a fun take on the idea. I am looking forward to listening to the next book. The stats are a bit lengthy for audio but they are not mentioned too often so it works out fine.
