I AM THE ONLY PERSON THE VILLAIN CANNOT KILL

I AM THE ONLY PERSON THE VILLAIN CANNOT KILL

In the Kingdom of Avelune, no one dies without warning. Every soul is born beneath a glowing number, counting down the exact day death will come. Elara Veyne has no number at all. She's spent her life feared for it, until she locks eyes with a stranger in the rain who shouldn't be standing at all. His number reads zero. He's breathing anyway. And when he looks at her, it isn't with fear. It's with recognition. His name is Kael Draven. The kingdom calls him the Black Villain, a man rumored to have killed thousands and to be impossible to kill himself. He tells her she's late, as if she was always meant to arrive. He knows her name before she speaks it. Details about her life no stranger could know. Every instinct tells Elara to run. But Kael keeps finding her. Keeps saving her from dangers he predicts before they happen. And the longer she stays near him, the more the world unravels: a woman who dies and wakes the next morning with no memory of it, a painting centuries old bearing both their faces exactly as they look now, dreams of a golden room she's certain she's never seen and somehow knows by heart. Piece by piece, the truth surfaces. Elara has lived this life before. Died in it, over and over, in ways she cannot remember and Kael cannot forget. Behind his violence is a man who has spent three centuries choosing to love her again, every time the world takes her from him. Now something ancient is waking, and it has decided they are both mistakes to correct. Elara is the reason the world keeps breaking. Stopping it might mean losing the one person who has never let her go.

What are the best supervillain books of all time?

Oh, where do I even begin with supervillain books? There's something so deliciously twisted about diving into the minds of characters who embrace their dark side. 'Vicious' by V.E. Schwab is an absolute masterpiece—Victor Vale and Eli Card are these brilliantly flawed, morally gray characters who redefine what it means to be a villain. The way Schwab explores power, revenge, and the blurred line between hero and villain is just chef's kiss. Then there's 'Soon I Will Be Invincible' by Austin Grossman, which is like a love letter to comic book tropes but with a fresh, self-aware twist. Doctor Impossible is hilariously relatable in his over-the-top evil plans.

And let's not forget 'The Silence of the Lambs'—Hannibal Lecter might not have superpowers, but he’s the ultimate supervillain in his own right. The psychological depth and sheer charisma of that character are unmatched. For something more recent, 'Hench' by Natalie Zina Walschots flips the script by showing the mundane, bureaucratic side of working for villains, and it’s weirdly refreshing. Honestly, I could gush about this genre for hours—it’s just so much fun to root for the bad guys sometimes.

Can you recommend supervillain books for young adults?

I adore YA books with complex villains—they make the stakes feel so personal! One of my all-time favorites is 'Vicious' by V.E. Schwab, where two former friends turn into ruthless rivals with supernatural abilities. The moral gray areas are chef’s kiss.

For something darker, 'The Young Elites' by Marie Lu flips the script entirely—the protagonist is basically a villain in training, and her descent is both tragic and fascinating. Plus, the world-building with its fantasy Renaissance vibe is immersive. If you want a laugh amid the chaos, 'Renegades' by Marissa Meyer offers superheroes vs. villains with witty banter and unexpected twists.

Are there any supervillain books from the villain's perspective?

One of my favorite twists in storytelling is when we get to see the world through the villain's eyes—it flips everything on its head! Take 'Vicious' by V.E. Schwab, for example. It’s a brilliant dive into the minds of two former friends turned bitter rivals, blurring the lines between hero and villain. The moral gray areas are so compelling, and Schwab’s writing makes you question who you’re even rooting for by the end.

Then there’s 'Soon I Will Be Invincible' by Austin Grossman, which is almost a love letter to comic book tropes but from the perspective of Doctor Impossible, a supervillain with a hilariously inflated ego. The book balances humor and pathos so well—you’re laughing at his antics one minute and feeling weirdly sympathetic the next. It’s a wild ride that makes you appreciate the villain’s side of things.

What are the best books about becoming a villain?

If you're looking for books that explore the art of villainy with depth, I'd start with 'You' by Caroline Kepnes. It's a chilling dive into the mind of a sociopath who justifies every horrific action with twisted logic. What makes it brilliant is how uncomfortably relatable the protagonist feels at times—like listening to a friend rationalize their worst impulses.

Then there's 'Lolita' by Nabokov, which isn't about villains in the traditional sense but forces you to inhabit the perspective of a monster. The lyrical prose makes Humbert Humbert almost sympathetic, until you catch yourself and remember what he's describing. It's masterful psychological manipulation that'll leave you questioning your own moral compass.

How to write a compelling supervillain book?

Writing a supervillain book is like crafting a dark gem—you need layers, brilliance, and just enough cracks to make it fascinating. First, ditch the mustache-twirling clichés. A great antagonist isn’t evil for evil’s sake; they’ve got a twisted logic that almost makes sense. Take 'Watchmen’s' Ozymandias—his utopian vision justifies genocide. That moral ambiguity? Gold.

Next, give them agency. They shouldn’t just react to the hero; they orchestrate the chaos. Think of 'The Dark Knight’s' Joker, who turns Gotham into his playground. Flesh out their backstory, but don’t over-explain. Mystery fuels dread. And please, let them have fun. A villain who revels in their role (like 'Hannibal’s' Lecter) is unforgettable. Bonus points if they’re charismatic enough to make readers question their own morals.

Which supervillain books have the best plot twists?

One of the most mind-blowing plot twists I've encountered in supervillain literature has to be in 'Vicious' by V.E. Schwab. The way the story flips the traditional hero-villain dynamic on its head is just brilliant. You start off thinking you know who the bad guy is, but then the layers peel back, and suddenly, morality feels like a blur. The characters are so morally gray that you end up questioning your own judgments.

Another standout is 'Soon I Will Be Invincible' by Austin Grossman. The twist around Doctor Impossible's true motives and his connection to the heroes is both heartbreaking and hilarious. It’s a perfect blend of satire and genuine emotion, making you root for the villain in ways you never expected. The book plays with comic book tropes so cleverly that even seasoned readers get blindsided.
