Blue Core: Book One

By: Inadvisably Compelled

Narrated by: Jeremy Frazier

Dungeon: a place full of monsters, traps, treasure, and death. Those are the Great Dungeons, with unplumbed depths below the roots of the mountains. That's not for me.

Dungeon: a place of rape, torture, and death, to control and corral enemies and slaves. These are the Red Cores, from which the mage-kings draw their power. That's also not for me.

I don't like monsters. I don't want adventurers. I want to stay well away from enemies and slaves. Fortunately, there are alternatives....

A different sort of dungeon-core LitRPG novel.

Includes explicit and consensual sexual content. Chapters containing such will be marked.

Single best isekai I've read

Amazing writing, amazing story. You'll be hooked once you start it. If you enjoy Overlord, this has similar vibes. The world is well thought out but not overexplained. The MC is powerful, but not so strong that there aren't any threats. His power just makes more conflict if anything. It's easy for an isekai to fall into the trap of not having stakes, but there are always stakes in this one and the story is always moving somewhere. 10/10

GREAT!!

Book was great. I fell in love with the characters and setting. I can not wait for the second one to come out!

9 parts fun 1 part raunch

This book was a clever take on the litRPG genre. I docked it a star because it has explicit content, marked by the author, that isn't additive to the story. The sex scenes are very much 'women written by men'. Also, the author claims the scenes are consensual, but the first scene is a rape. The author doesn't quite grasp what consent is. If you want a heads up, the chapters are marked and they involve tentacles and graphic description.

Excellent

This is one of the best books I have listened to in a long while. I loved the alternative perspectives, especially from Blue's point of view. I also really liked not knowing about his past. Overall great and I can't wait to enjoy the rest of the series.

Interesting and entertaining

Sometimes it's hard to find a good book that the author is passionate about all the way through their writing. That's not a problem here.
