Synopsis
One day, the world changed.
Undergoing a scary and fascinating transformation at the chime of terrestrial timers set in motion eons ago.
Unfortunately, James finds himself stuck in the day before that change, caught in an endless loop and desperately trying to find a way out of his own skill and its preposterous use.
Time prisons have their upsides, but living out the same day over and over is getting old. with so many looming questions of what a System is and why it needs him might change James forever.
For better or for worse.
What will happen to the future when James escapes the present? Is he ready to join the universe?
Is the universe ready for him?
******************************************
What to expect?
A man driven insane by the ravages of time trying to find his humanity again in a rapidly changing world.
James by the end of the Loop is not a good person, but he isn't a bad one either. He’s just mildly insane.
Power scaling?
This is important so I thought I’d address it. James is a special case, but he is by no means Powerful even by the end of the Loop. He works under the same rules of the system power scaling as everyone else.
There is no Rule breaking here. But there is circumventing.
*********************
If you’ve read something sort of similar, I wrote a book about three years ago with a similar concept of someone stuck in a time loop a day before the world was changed by a System. it was called Eternity's Unbroken if anyone's curious.
The Prologue is admittedly long, but it’s meant to establish who James was because he’s such a different character by the time the Loop ends. Also the story takes place in Melbourne Australia, because that’s the city I know the best. Just to avoid any confusion about seasons and whatnot.
