Wrath

A LitRPG Dungeon Core Adventure (Dinosaur Dungeon, Book 1)

By: Alex Raizman

Narrated by: Annie Ellicott, Jeff Hays

When dungeon delvers and dinosaurs clash, who can survive?

Newborn Dungeon Cores must choose what entity they help contain, and that choice determines what monsters they are able to summon. After being executed for crimes forgotten in death, Tira is given the chance to make that choice. Tira chose Acekorah, the Primeval Terror, a being so dangerous few cores will risk trying to contain it.

The danger wasn’t important. Tira remembers dying. If containing Acekorah means Tira will face greater danger, that’s a risk worth taking, because the Primeval Terror walked the world long before the races of Man roamed the earth, and Cores bound to him are able to summon beings from beyond the veil of time.

Now, forged in the fires of Tira's wrath, the dinosaurs will walk the world anew.

Dungeons, Dragons, and Dinosaurs

Firstly, the narration of this book was amazing. It really could not have been better. As for the book itself, it is fun, funny, and thrilling. As with most of the books in this genre, the magic system was needlessly detailed for a book. I sometimes think most LitRPGs are written by failed game creators. However, mercifully, it is still easy enough to follow and the author doesn't drown us in stat spam, so well done there. As for the main plot, I found it well thought out and completely riveting at the end. If there are more books in the series, I'll be heading there now. I've grown to love the characters and can't wait to spend more time with them.

Great performance and detail

Exciting action always entertained throughout the the story. Characters have well developed personalities that make you sucked into the plot

Good story, but...

...not for me. The reason dinosaurs are the dungeon mob is readily apparent. The story is put together nicely but I personally don't see dinosaurs in a dungeon. SBT does an excellent job with the narration and voice changes for each character.

Slow Start but Gets going

Starts out pretty slow but things ramp up as she summons more creatures and we get to meet the main adventurer cast characters. Very casual and chill reading. Only complaint is why the characters say "I'm oom" instead of saying out of mana. People type oom since it's shorter to type, not say. It's equivalent to saying "ttyl" during a conversation. It's really jarring to hear them use a gaming term when it's not shorter or easier to say in a real life situation.

hooray for dinos!

I needed an invigorating listen, and while this book definitely relied on some old dungeon core tropes to make it a dungeon core story, it breathed some amazing life into it!
