Description

The gods on four worlds were in trouble, or rather the clique that had taken over those worlds development and refused to listen to the established but less powerful gods already in power were in trouble. Their mismanagement was causing four previously lush and pleasant worlds to become harsh and inhospitable.

So taking another leaf out of world building 301 they arbitrarily decided to seed the worlds in question with new dungeons they could control or at least influence.

One fine day Azurea, self declared Goddess of dungeons on those four worlds discovered a fascinating world; it was teeming with life, literally overburdened with teeming billions of sophonts. Even better in her view many were atheists and due to the rapidly expanding population many of those were brand new souls.

So without further ado she soulnapped one hundred of them for her cliques experiment.

This is the story of one of the randomly selected beings, a sixteen year old girl with anger management issues, in fact Mary Silvestre has been diagnosed a borderline psychopath by a lazy school system.

    this is a lot of fun it's multiple perspectives and a more wide-reaching story that focuses on more than just the individual dungeon turn some people off but it really shouldn't as well it may take longer does add more depth to the universe in which  MC lives and what's going on around her. She is a bit of an overpowered character but wouldn't quite call her Mary Sue because she does have some character depth and is not infallible. The only problem was the story is that the villains aren't the most fleshed out that they could be but like this is Royal Roads pretty rare that actually find a well fleshed out villain so wouldn't really call that a downside. All in all, I would definitely recommend this story is something fun to read especially if you're looking for a plucky protagonist beating the daylights out of villains really do give the impression that they need to get beat up.

    when reading this story it feels like there are chapters missing. Reading “A Collection of Tales” fills in some of the gaps but not all of them. Even so everything else is so great I have to give it 5 stars.

    That was so crazy and good and then it just stopped.  I didn’t notice the inactive tag.  Holy gods above and below please write more.  I know it’s been years but damn I loved this insane journey! This was seeming to hold its self together even venturing into the god realms.  I need morrrrrrrrrrr

    One of my favorites. A human-turned-dungeon gets her hand on some knowledge about genetics and genemodding and goes wild. She won't be in danger from adventurers, we'll head for the gods straight away. By skipping the mandatory 'dungeon is weak and needs to grow' time we can get right to what makes the story good. An extra powerful dungeon setting her territory down on several planets. She isn't a fan of people unless they are her people, but she's nice enough to help if it doesn't actually cost her anything - especially if it means you owe her a favor
    The writing is excellent, both style and grammar, though there are quite a few eyes we'll be looking out of. If I have one criticism it's how inflexible most earth governments seem to treat it and her. Earth has the invasion of the blue screens, they can see what it can give people. While I get that they don't want to acknowledge her as a goddess, they should at least have more of a clue as to how powerful she could be.
    Enjoy the read

    I normally don't write reviews, but I couldn't sit back while such a good book is so underrated. Overall unlike other dungeon story's  on this site that focus more on creating a unique and difficult dungeon, and how it interacts with the world around it, this story treats the dungeon not as more of an organization, but as an individual. I believe this is the best and worst point of the story. Best because this gives it a unique atmosphere around the story world, and makes it stand out from its contemporaries. Worse because many who come to read this are expecting something entirely different from what was delivered. Just make sure that you go into this with an open mind. (To Author: Don't get discouraged by the low reviews!)

    The beginning of this story before it found its rhythm need some tweaks around world building and the flow of the story with character dialogue.

    ★★ 2.0
    Unconventional way of narration.
    Barely tolerable but readable.
    Have interesting start, and amusing Interludes.
    But story without world building can only go this far.
    Sometime ago, I heard ressurection being mention like a norms, but no clarification so far.
    Godlike lack of details. Recycled and reused plot. Increasing pointless POVs.
    So yeah,

    *Updated Review chapter 41*
    OKay where this story really fell on its face for me is in chapter 39.
    Spoiler: Spoiler
    In Chapter 39 Mary’s double on earth finds a group of protesters condemning her as a witch. Her response was to sent a group of armed Soldiers to shove/beat protesters off her sidewalk?/Yard? She could have demanded that the police give her an escort and a bodyguard! Summoning a bunch of foreigners to beat people up would require the U.S army to respond. My ability to suspend my belief broke durning chapter 39 and 40. Honestly I think this ark is going to leave people confused and disappointed.
    As the novel is written I believe that author doesn’t made any real structure on how their fantasy world works. They it make up along the way as they write. It’s painfully noticeable.
    Review as of chapter 32 (Three stars at the time)
    The 1st 15 chapters I got to enjoy Mary as she struggled as a new dungeon at vicious odds with her maker. She is snarky, abrasive and easily distracted. Fun aside, the issues with this work rear thier heads the further on I read. The biggest one is that Mary is not presented with difficult challenges. There are no  clever opponents, the adventurers are weak and none of her plans backfire.
    So... While fun there isn't a challenging dymanic to enrich this story.
