Descent by Matthew Peed
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
So, honestly, I read these not for the characterizations but to see what huge monstrosities will come from the pages. And not only monsters, per se, but planetoids and planet eaters.
Wait. Is this a fantasy? An SF? A LitRPG?
Um, yeah. All of the above. Dungeon cores, super-immense mana energy, robotics on a godlike scale, and demons who are little bitches beneath this onslaught.
So? What's wrong then?
Nothing, if you don't really care if there's a story or a beginning, a middle, or an end. And really, who cares? We're in Cosmic Marvel Kaiju territory now.
