Summary

A side-quest set in the world of the Epic LitRPG Series The Realms.

Simon died once. He'll be damned before he dies twice.

Simon never asked to become the new dungeon master of the Barrow, but a millennia-old teenager stuck in the skull of a dead lich has few life options. After bonding with the Barrow’s dungeon core, he learns they are near death from hunger and only by consuming the life energy and experiences of sentient beings can they survive.

Lucky for Simon a party of murderous adventurers invades the Barrow in search of treasure and glory. They look to be a perfectly tasty meal until one transforms into a mentally unstable fanatic whose specialty is killing the undead in all its forms, especially teenagers stuck in skulls bonded to dungeons.

If Simon can’t master his new powers, defeat invaders bent on plunder and convince the Barrow to take a kinder, gentler approach to feeding, then he will die a second time. And this time it’ll be permanent.

Dead Must Die is a short side quest set in the best-selling The Realms universe. It takes place sometime after Barrow King but before the events of Scourge of Souls.

Go Simon

Dead must die is a short story about a sub-character from the Barrow King. I enjoyed this and it was fun to listen to.

It’s all about Simon who died at the hands of the Barrow King, and now he’s the new dungeon master. He bonds with the dungeon core and learns they are near death as they haven’t consumed the lives of adventurers. He must master his new ‘lich’ powers and defeat those who are hell-bent on looting the barrow, but in a nicer way, and Simon seems a much nicer lich king than Arthas.

I really liked Simon’s story and found it helpful to learn a bit more about him, an easy read/listen.

All I can say to that end is go Simon!

the book had me chuckling for most if not all of t

the book had me chuckling for most if not all of the duration...
it has little to do with the rest of the world at this time though I see promise for a big tie in later

Reuben did little for the book, but never got in the way of the story either...
his female voices could use a little work...
a fairly average performance and in all, but him being attached would not stop me from buying a book either

I thoroughly enjoyed this performance of Dead Must Die and it was brilliant to delve more into the world of the Realms from other perspectives. it really helps flesh out the world of the Realms.
