Series: Dungeon Incursions Book 2
After clearing the first dungeon, Lance and his newly formed crew prepare to tackle the next. With fresh upgrades and no real guide explaining how the system works, they hesitate over class choices—but survival doesn’t wait for perfect planning. The second dungeon raises the stakes with more intelligent enemies, stronger creatures, and increased danger at every turn.
At the end of Book 1, I wasn’t a fan of Lance. He came across as unnecessarily abrasive. In this installment, he tones it down—but I’m not convinced it’s character growth. It feels more like situational focus than meaningful development. I’m still undecided on him as a protagonist.
The bigger issue for me is structure. These aren’t traditional “books” so much as episodic dungeon runs. Each installment feels like a single instance within what could easily be one larger novel. By the end of Book 2, I was hoping to see a broader plot begin forming, but so far it’s mostly just sequential dungeon progression without much narrative depth.
The premise works if you enjoy pure dungeon-crawl mechanics and incremental leveling. However, I’m still waiting for more story substance—some larger conflict, world-building expansion, or character evolution—to give the series more weight. Without that, I may not continue.
There’s not much more I can say without spoiling the entire dungeon run.
