Vikas Adam Audiobooks
Average book rating in our database
Voice Style
Measured and thoughtful, with clean separation between narrator voice and character dialogue — you always know who's talking, even when one of the speakers is a sentient rock. Adam excels at non-human perspectives. His dungeon core Cal sounds genuinely alien while staying weirdly likable, which is a harder trick than it sounds. He also handles Dakota Krout's pun-heavy humor with a perfectly straight face, and the deadpan makes the groaners land better. Not the flashiest style in the genre, but the control is what impresses.
About Vikas Adam
Vikas Adam narrates fantasy, sci-fi, and literary fiction, and that range shows in his LitRPG work. In our corner of the genre he narrates the opening books of Dakota Krout's The Divine Dungeon and The Completionist Chronicles. Check the credit on each later volume: Luke Daniels narrates Dungeon Eternium and Raze. Dungeon Born is still the performance I point people to. Voicing Cal — a rock learning how to think — could easily have been a gimmick, but Adam gives him an actual arc from curious pebble to something much scarier. That measured delivery is a big part of why dungeon core stories work in audio at all.
Where to Start
Dungeon Born if you want the classic dungeon core experience — it defined the subgenre in audio, and the dual perspective (dungeon and the adventurers diving it) shows off Adam's range. Ritualist kicks off The Completionist Chronicles and is the better pick if you want traditional adventuring with a crunchy magic system and a truly irresponsible number of puns.
