Dungeon Core 101: Midterms

Rate this book
A dungeon core's education is a careful mix of having an open mind, a steely determination, a dash of curiosity, and...a certain resilience to explosive forces!

After the grueling task of murdering a feral dungeon and the near-death experience that came with it, the year has finally begun in earnest at Ansith's Academy for Dungeon Training and Combat. Rem Snowfur has his class load in place, new abilities at his beck and call, an assistant, and a goddess in his corner to boot.

With so much working for him, the Foxkin turned Dungeon Core is progressing more swiftly than he could have ever hoped, but will that be enough for Rem to keep up with the fast-approaching midterms and their fabulous prizes?

With the adventurer's guild building up their new town at his borders, the task of building up his dungeon proper, and keeping Ansith—not to mention his friends—in the dark about his new ally. The margin for error is only getting narrower, and Rem cannot afford to slip up now. He's learned too much and come too far for that. It's going to take more than the risk of death, a few bullies, and the unfortunate secret history of his entire race to stop him from rising to the top.

Class is back in session. Don't be late.

R.J. Triveri is the author of the LitRPG series Incipere Online and Dungeon Core 101. He graduated from university life with a master’s in technology and education. Completing this, he has spent much of his free time writing, gaming, DM’ing for an overzealous paladin and crew that are constantly putting the world at risk, and trying to keep all of his stories straight so they can be written down. He currently is alive and plans on staying that way for at least another sixty-some years. With his wife, his hurricane of a son, and his cantankerous, anxiety-ridden cat, R.J. couldn’t be happier with the way things turned out.

Fun

It’s a fun read exploring a slowly growing magical world. We learn more of the contrasting dungeon factions. We also learn that not everything is as it seems at the University. The MC shows his cleverness and starts getting into more trouble than he can handle. Ultimately he accidentally reconnects with someone that might have best been left in the past.

While the story is steadily paced, a fun read, and generally well told; it does read like auto correct was a co-author. There are many instances where the wrong word was used and the reader was left to parse what the author intended. It does detract from the reading experience, and can be a pain to reestablish suspension of disbelief. However even with this, it was an excellent story that I truly enjoyed. I hope you will too.

Interesting, but flawed

A good-ish story with interesting characters and concepts, but quite in need of another editing/proofreading pass. There are frequent errors in capitalization, spelling of names (Saria is often written as Saira, for instance), homphone confusion (dawned instead of donned, for instance), missing apostrophes in possessives, and more. There are even places where there are missing words or even extra words.

There's a few too many arcs that are never fully developed or explored, and some of the characterization feels off. The whole "we're the good side, but if you do poorly in classes, you'll be killed" really doesn't sit well with me.

Good story, horrible editing

I really enjoyed this story but this has to be the worst editing I have ever encountered. Starting about a third of the way into this book, it appears that no editing was done at all. I would have given this 4 stars if it weren't so bad. That said, I will probably get the next book.

Good second book

Gave it a 3 instead of 4 as needs another check for typos with person not spell check.
Saw number of typos things like form instead of from, at least one where was not sure if was an incomplete sentence or a typo with words in wrong order.
Good progression and development looking forward to next
