Story
The usual result of a human taking a runaway semitruck head-on is a very sudden, very fast track to the pearly gates. But for one newly noncorporeal man, there's another option: become a dungeon. Feeling sorry for the desperate angel assigned to him, the man relents. Heck, if it doesn't work out, he can always chat with Saint Peter about it later. Next thing you know, he's a dungeon. Admittedly, a small run-down, somewhat unimpressive dungeon (more of a house, actually), but you gotta start somewhere, right?

When summoned to a fantastical world and granted powers by a broken System, most freshly minted protagonists would strap on their big-boy boots and get ready for their stats to start climbing. But Fischer isn't like most MCs. In fact, he doesn't want to be a hero at all. Fame? Fortune? Power? He had enough of all that in his old life. Discovering forbidden fishing techniques and petting every cute animal that comes within scritching distance? Now that's a good time.

When it comes to action and adventure, every hero needs a good sidekick. Holmes has Watson, Batman has Robin, and Daniel has . . . Orrin. More like brothers than friends, they always have each other's backs. And as Daniel is the big, strong, handsome type, Orrin is more than happy to remain in his shadow at school, at parties, pretty much everywhere. Then things take a turn for the truly weird when a terrible accident catapults the pair into a world totally unlike their own, in which the rules of a role-playing game hold sway.

Those in power do not believe in the possibility of triumph against the will of the gods, and instead squander their time and effort in indulging their needs and desires as the world quickly rots away around them. Mankind’s only hope rests on the shoulders of a man they hate the most. A man who has taken every possible measure, both accepted and forbidden, to attain power. Sungchul Kim, the man who reached the pinnacle of strength, now stands alone against the Calamities. Not because he is a hero, but because of a promise.

Several questions have always plagued the minds of those who enter these mythical places of power: why are there so many monsters? Where do the amazing weaponry and heavy gold coins come from? Why does the very air fill with life-giving energies? Cal has all of the answers to these age-old questions, for a very simple reason. He is a Dungeon Heart.

Publisher's Summary
When virtual reality becomes real enough that people feel as if they're being transported to another world, Valia Online arrives.
A man running from his past joins the game to forget it all. Calling himself Jack Thorn, he chooses an undead race, Deathlord.
A mage by choice, and a swordsman by necessity, he soon finds out that he'll need to use much more than magic and steel to survive; strategy, creativity, and carefully chosen words can often accomplish what simple attacks can't.
As the game becomes too real and touches a part of him that he'd rather leave buried, he is faced with two questions: Who is he, really? And who should he become?
Challenge is book one of the Unbound Deathlord series, a LitRPG saga.

Started typically, ended very well
Went through the usual motions: gaming capsule, explain game terms, accident that makes MC OP in a way. "It's such a mystery how interesting things happen around the protagonist" as a way to justify plot. Nothing overly new, but it's a damn good story nonetheless.

Low stakes until the end.
Narration was excellent as Jeff Hays always is. I struggled to get through the story though. Many other litRPGs have a hook that draws me in; a fundamental high stakes aspect that involves me in the story well beyond watching some guy play a video game. For most of this book however watching some guy play a video game is precisely what I was doing and I was bored for HOURS! When plot points began to come together at the end I found myself trying to care about it. I should be so invested in the characters that I should be on the edge of my seat, but instead I was kind of mad that book 2 will ultimately be responsible for driving the story along.

I'd like my time and money back...
I've finished the book hoping for something akin a redemption arc for, well, all characters. No luck here. As previously mentioned by an other reviewer, everyone is mean and unpleasant. It a game where toxic behaviours seem encouraged.
The voice acting for female characters is pretty bad.
I would not recommend that book at all.

A long and painful lesson
A long and painful lesson, I thought the story concept had potential however after listening to the end I realize that none of this potential would be really reached in this book. The performances and characters are laughable. Perhaps this author has never met her real woman before. They use a literary device in this audiobook. They repeatedly read a stat sheet back to you at the beginning of every chapter.
