Cat Core

Florence Valentine’s simple pet store run takes a fatal turn when a delivery truck ends her life. But instead of heaven, a mysterious voice declares she’s become a dungeon core. Confused, Florence quickly discovers her new "home" is a constant target for unwelcome intruders who wreck her space and steal her property. Yet, this bizarre transformation comes with unexpected perks. She can redecorate her domain with a mere thought and, most excitingly, create the best things in the universe: adorable kitty-cats. Should these persistent hooligans continue to trespass, Florence and her growing army of felines are ready. They’ll ensure that disturbing a newly minted dungeon core and her beloved kitties comes with a very painful, purr-fectly orchestrated price.

Florence Valentine's brief return to Earth is complete, and she's back on Aerkon, determined to rebuild her dungeon alongside Doug. Together, they envision a magnificent new home, but the world of Aerkon is far from welcoming. A previous bargain struck with the formidable lich Berikoz now looms large, threatening to demand a price far greater than Florence anticipated. As they strive to establish their new sanctuary, an array of powerful enemies emerges, all intent on its destruction.

Florence and Doug face relentless opposition from not only other dangerous liches and pesky dungeon inhabitants but also malevolent adventurers and influential guilds. With allies scarce, the odds are stacked against them. Can Florence, Doug, and their loyal kitty defenders summon the strength and resourcefulness needed to protect everything they've painstakingly built? Discover their struggle in Cat Core Book 2: Lich's Bargain.
