Publisher's summary

When you steal Time Magic, prepare to run for eternity …

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.

Don't miss the start of a new LitRPG adventure filled with time magic, three-dimensional characters, a crunchy LitRPG system, tactical combat, and power progression where level-ups are hard-earned and bring with them meaningful change in characters’ abilities.

book is good, Just have a mild criticism

when the Girl is finally told about the time loop she said that the system has controlled every aspect of existence exept time. therefore it couldn't control time. wtf. why would time be an exception if it can control minds bend space and summon and control demons?

The author broke the K.I.S.S. rule of writing.

I think people should get this book because this guy can write and to see an example of too much information. The characters are well thought out but every action is explained in such detail, and then contemplated how it’s the best action to be taken. I often found myself wanting to skip minutes even entire chapters, just not to have to listen through the superfluous dialogue or monologue.  
The narration was as good as it gets in my opinion, but in some ways, it just highlighted the superfluous nature of the story.
My English teacher said you could write the best story ever but if you break the K.I.S.S. (Keep it simple stupid) rule. You will lose the reader at some point this book was a perfect example of that.

good premise. plot holes like swiss cheese

it was a good premise, but the number of plot holes is pretty bad. if you can ignore plot holes it's not a bad read.

Time stuff, real stakes, and a smart MC

The MC has the odds stacked against him but has a special advantage of his own. Never does it feel like he is overpowered, and there is usually a decent chance of death for most of his endeavors. He has to overcome these odds by being smart, using his powers wisely, and cooperating with a friend who is out of loop.

Also I love the LitRPG system! It offers lots of choices and customization and makes for a really interesting build even without the time stuff.

So time stuff, real stakes, and a smart MC. What more could you want?

Demon/Devil Names

The naming convention of the demons/devils is well thought, but it’s also a cruel punishment for the readers and narrator when these double digit syllable names crop up as often as they do. Time Skip these names…. It’s like you could have a commercial break while the poor narrator is reading one, come back, and it’s still going. Cutting them out or abbreviating them would just make everything so much better. They make me want to forget the scenes with them which is a shame since the main devil antagonist is so interesting in the end.

Then, there’s a little peculiarity with the first demon being a “legendary” level 14. That just seems like an oxymoron, but it’s silly how the level 9 MC already has a stronger version of his power since he can go back further. I don’t recall it being explained why he remembered the demon’s time loops either. MC wasn’t even curious about it.

Or when it’s so out of the realm of possibility to fight a level 38, but within like a chapter, they unironically kill a level 44.

The health system is really interesting here!

Overall, pretty good! I really liked the voice he used for "Zagdul" or however it's spelt. Really funny take on "chronomancer" and excited for the next book, even if it is nearly half the length.
