Ascension Core

Superhero Dungeon, Book 2

By: John Stovall

Narrated by: Brian Wiggins

Sam Smith, the "Villain Core" training-center dungeon, survived his second encounter with Exosuit.

But the supervillains made off with the other nine Villain Cores.

Now, Lucas Lee—the hero Fury Fist, and Sam’s closest friend—must complete a mission to recapture one of those cores. Fury Fist hopes they can convert the villain’s mind inside the core to fight on the side of justice.

In the meantime, Sam wants to develop "loot" in the form of cybernetic enhancements that the heroes can use to make themselves more powerful. High-level villains won’t stand a chance if the heroes have a physical edge! At least, that’s what Sam hopes.

But the villains aren’t just sitting around. They have their own plan to wipe out Sam, Fury Fist, and everyone else on the side of justice and unity—a plan that will kill millions of innocents as well.

With the aid of his AI assistant, Melissa, and the ever-growing superhero adventuring team going through his dungeon, Sam must continue to grow his training center to become the most powerful Villain Core ever.

A Dungeon Core story for fans of superheroes.

Good progress.

I enjoyed this book. Good progression. Real stakes which what matters. The romance is crap though. Should have just let that go.

A great sequel to book one

If you loved book one, you'll love this also. It doesn't deviate from the original, but its a great next step in the story. I highly recommend it for fans of the genre.
