About this listen

In all the games Matt has played, dungeons are places to raid, places you dream of conquering, but when the world is stripped of electricity, and the first mana-twisted beasts start to prowl, the games all come to an end....

Matt's just an ordinary guy, but when he's beaten, robbed, and left for dead, bleeding out at the bottom of a gully, it all has to change as he grasps frantically at his only chance for survival, coming as it does in the form of a glowing, dangerously pulsing light.

With his reality forever altered, Matt must quickly find a suitable place to deploy the Dungeon Core, fighting his way through the hundreds of people between him and safety, because if he doesn't do it soon, a Core Detonation will solve all of his problems for him....permanently.

Welcome to the New World.

I like the Story, it really passes the time and is okay. The MC always says he tries to be a good person. Until he is not.... really, I do unterstand that the Issue with System Apocalypse Books is that it always boils down to more or less who is able to do what needs to be done to protect the innocent. But the MC seems not to fit that role. Overpowered? Nah, Powerful, yes. But he always gets captured. While twice I would agree, I did not understand why they would do it a third time. And his human Party consists of a self centered family I would have kicked out of the Dungeon soon after they moved in. No fun to read the interactions with the ungrateful Idiots at all, it really annoys me.

And additional there are a lot of Guns, Guns, a bit of Magic and.... Guns.

It has so much Potential, really good performance and I liked it. And I want to like it more, but the second part, for it could develop in one of the best Stories there is. But I am afraid to pick up the next book and have more of the same. Still on the fence if I continue.

Good Story, MC so so, other characters are idiots

Action, adventure, humour.. would have been nice .. and this book delivers, this is the whole package including the bucket and spade.
The narrator - Neil is spot on, with just the right tone and inflection.
Spoiler alert - world goes to hell in a hand basket, so the MC does the best he can after bonding with a dungeon - with a little help.. eventually.

Hard core LITRPG adventure of the best kind

I loved this book. characters all seemed sound and easy to read. the store line was a bit predictable and at times was a bit far-fetched, but this is fantasy, I suppose. overall, I enjoyed it and will be after more of the same.

I listened to the audio book whilst working and often found myself getting too engrossed to concentrate. oops.

I would recommend this title to any fantasy lover

captivating

The overall story is good but the parts where it’s like reading a RPG guide book are very dull.
Too many times did the hero face impossible odds and come out victorious it ended up whatever he did he would be okay.

Meh
