Story4.5 out of 5 stars 180
Having survived his first year at Faebrook, all Rowan wants is to continue adventuring, learn more magic, and perhaps enjoy a nice apple pie every now and then. Instead, he is swept into the political turmoil that seems to follow Morgana everywhere she goes. With assassins lurking in the shadows, dungeon dives growing ever more dangerous, and rumors of dark deeds going unpunished in the Fae homeland, it will take all of Rowan's ability just to survive.

Railroaded plot.
Reviewed: 12-13-24
The first book has some of the same issues but I pushed past them hoping it would get better, but I'm starting to actively dislike the author for how much he just railroads the main instances. It began to feel like swiss cheese with all of the plot holes and forced circumstances. Add to that the fabricated drama and I dropped it near the end.

When Matt Perison first came to Gaia, everything was wrong and dangerous. He was promised redemption and repayment for dying of cancer, but that turned out to be a lie. He was promised a nice place in which to exist, but instead he got death. He was promised, in all ways, good. But what he has, in all ways, is bad. He's made the best of it though. Aided by his system guardian, Lucy, and the dungeon system itself, Barry, Matt began to build a life for himself. He's getting pretty good at surviving in a place where nothing else is alive. But surviving isn't all there is.

It's a fun story, but the super boss woman who has to keep the guys in line stereotype used for every single female character is starting to get pretty annoying. Not sure if I'll pick up the next one or not.

good premise, but the characters don't act how it would make sense. it wouldn't be bad if it wasn't such a trope, but the he main female character is also an eye roller.

Its rare that I don't have at least a few things that detract from a story. While I could probably dredge up a few issues, It was just a plain fun read. Liked the premise, liked the characters, found the power system interesting. A few minor plot holes, but nothing that ruined the story

Arlan can go back in time by one minute, once per day. Fail a challenge? Say something dumb? He can get a redo as long as he acts fast. And every time he levels up, he can go back a little further. But, even with his growing power, Arlan has never been in more danger. He was left stranded in the middle of a monster-infested forest, nobody to rely on but himself as he fights to build strength. And his time magic wasn't given to him freely. He stole it. And its original owners would go to any lengths to take it back.

Misleading premise and political push.
Reviewed: 07-20-23
The premise and start are pretty good. The scientific exploration of magic. When you get a few hours into the book you realize that all of that is just superficial, and it's like watching a app store game commercial that is nothing like the real game. Also not a big fan of all of the lgbt+ stuff added for seemingly no other reason than the author is trying to convey their world view. While it's not quite as heavy handed as some authors it's still annoying.
