Summary

Sandra managed to survive the first major incursion from the nearby Orcs, thanks in part to the help a certain half-orc/half-dwarf provided. However, Kelerim left her dungeon to seek out his father, leaving her all alone with just Winxa - her dungeon fairy - as company.

With the loss of her new friend comes some opportunities, at least; she now has the freedom to craft whatever she wants, and the threat of her dungeon core’s destruction from outside forces is practically absent. She even has the opportunity to upgrade her core size, unlocking additional constructs for use as dungeon monsters, as well as a new core-specific skill.

Unfortunately for Sandra, a particular action outside of the dungeon has unintentionally drawn attention to her activities, and there’s now a very serious threat to her survival. Racing against the clock, the crafting-based dungeon needs to find a way to prevent her destruction, all the while dealing with the problems her expanding area of influence has created.

Because it’s not only the nearby races that she has to deal with - but the nearby dungeons, as well.

This dungeon core story contains litRPG/gamelit elements such as statistics and leveling and a heavy crafting emphasis. No profanity and no harems.

Another Great book

I like reading litrpg books but i just love this book series. That is mainly because i really enjoy reading about crafting. If you love dungeon books and crafting you would enjoy this book. I love rereading this book as well as its first book. Looking forward to the next one.

Epic crafter book!

This is a great book it's fun light hearted and entertaining. It follows the life of a dungeon core desperately trying to save the the races. The story is a must read and I will be continuing on with this series.

Loved every bit of it :) this is my first dungeon series and I just like the way the story is progressing smoothly ! Already started book 3, hope book 4 isn’t too far behind. Must give this a listen

good old crsfting and fungroning with creative unlocks. but the dialogue and actionx of peoplr are fairly stilted.

An extremely fun story

This was the second book in the series. Louise did an absolutely amazing job with the characters. Really wish she would dual narrate! But an amazing job none-the-less!

Strong follow-up and escalation for the series

While not really the ideal place to join the series, it would be possible, although you'd be better off experiencing it from the first book. This instalment in the series picks things up directly from where book one ends and does a very good job of expanding the immediate scope of the world of the first book, introducing new races for Sandra to somehow try and communicate with, while also introducing new challenges for her to face as she expands as a dungeon and how she interacts with some of the others too.

Most of the supporting cast are new in this book, so there was always the chance that the reader might need to be drawn into the series all over again, but the main character's personality and continuing development helps to ease the new cast in quite readily for the listener.

The narrator's performance is a strong one that further helps to draw the listener into this story with a suitable range of tones for the cast and a general narration that helps to add to the drama when needed.

Overall, a very good second instalment in this series, now I just have to wait for the next one.
