Build a Dungeon. Slay Heroes. Survive Finals.Wounded Army vet Logan Murray thought mimics were the stuff of board games and dungeon manuals… right up until one ate him.In a flash of snapping teeth, Logan suddenly finds himself on the doorstep to another world. He's been unwittingly recruited into the Shadowcroft Academy for Dungeons-the most prestigious interdimensional school dedicated to training the monstrous guardians who protect the Tree of Souls from so-called heroes. Heroes who would destroy the universe if it meant a shot at advancement.Unfortunately, as a bottom-tier cultivator with a laughably weak core, Logan's dungeon options aren't exactly stellar, and he finds himself reincarnated as a lowly fungaloid, a three-foot-tall mass of spongy mushroom with fewer skills than a typical sewer rat. If he's going to survive the grueling challenges the academy has in store, he'll need to ace the odd assortment of classes-Fiendish Fabrication, Dungeon Feng Shui, the Ethics of Murder 101-and learn how to turn his unusual guardian form into an asset instead of a liability.And that's only if the gargoyle professor doesn't demote him to a doomed wandering monster first…From James A. Hunter-bestselling author of Rogue Dungeon, Bibliomancer (Completionist Chronicles Expanded Universe), and the LitRPG epic Viridian Gate Online-and Dragon Award Finalist Aaron Michael Ritchey, comes a brand new Dungeon Core novel, like nothing you've ever seen before. Funny, funky, and full of Gamelit goodness, this is one novel you won't want to put down. Aaron Michael Ritchey is the author of The Never Prayer, Long Live the Suicide King, and Elizabeth's Midnight. He was born on a cold and snowy September day in Denver, Colorado, and while he's lived and traveled all over the world, he's a child of the American West. Sagebrush makes him homesick. While he pines for Paris, he still lives in Colorado with his cactus flower of a wife and two stormy daughters.
