Early Reviewers
When the System decided humanity needed "correction," Rael Ardyn was its favorite weapon.
Non-human villages burned. Treaties were signed in blood. Every "peace conference" was a prelude to another quiet genocide—and Rael was the blade that made it happen.
Then the Dominion put him on the scaffold.
Instead of dying, Rael wakes up one year before the Great Erasure—branded ENEMY OF HUMANITY, chained inside a Justiciar transport, with a glowing Genocide Timer in his vision counting down the days until every non-human race is erased for good. The System wants to "correct" him, study him, and then use him again.
Rael has other plans.
To dismantle the Dominion, he'll have to survive Justiciars, parish-burning "arts," and a broken UI that lets him steal other people's habits, skills, and forms—his forbidden Void Echo. Every rollback, every death, every reset leaves another scar on his soul and another glitch in the Timer's script.
Somewhere out there, another Timer-broken survivor is moving in the dark, warping the countdown and hunting for Rael--the one man who should have stayed dead.
Genocide Timer: I Regressed as the Enemy of Humanity is a dark, slow-burn LitRPG / progression fantasy featuring: - A villain-leaning MC branded as humanity's enemy - Hybrid low-tech / magitech worldbuilding (parishes, Justiciars, constructs, and System UI) - Void-echo powers that steal habits, skills, and forms instead of classic level-ups - Moral gray zones, non-human erasure, political pressure, and resistance against a rigged System - No harem, no romance focus--just escalation, paranoia, and rebellion
For readers who like dark fantasy, LitRPG, and "System vs rebel anomaly" stories, this is Book 1 of the Genocide Timer series.
