Successful villains aren't born. They're made.Unless you're born into the role of hero or handed it by misguided fairy godmothers, you can never hope to achieve anything beyond the measly life you've got. At least that's what the fairy tale fops would have you believe. They prefer people to think that only divine destiny allows others the right to join their exclusive club, but fate isn't a good enough reason to let the heroes get all the glory.However, from "once upon a time" to "happily ever after", heroes have stacked the deck against the intrepid villains. Until now.Geoffrey P. Ward is the world's foremost (and only) fairy tale villain consultant, and in this guide, he outlines all the critical tips for success you need to achieve your villainous goals. Whether looking to overthrow a kingdom or put your unruly stepdaughter in her place, Geoffrey P. Ward's Guide to Villainy will give you the tools and knowledge you need to succeed.Because even villains deserve a happily ever after.

Not all quests are heroic. And neither are all heroes.Writing his memoir wasn't something Geoffrey P. Ward had ever planned to do. He had enough on his plate, thank you very much, and that sort of self-indulgent behavior didn't appeal to him. But answering the same questions about his backstory over and over irritated him more. Yes, he started off as a hero before he became the world famous fairy tale villain consultant he is today. When he mentioned it in passing in his Guide to Villainy, it hadn't seemed that big a deal. Apparently, not. And now, he's stuck penning the story about the grand quest that drove him from hero to villain all to appease people's curiosity and to save his sanity.And if that wasn't bad enough, another quest comes knocking on his door. Literally.Ugh. Princesses are really more bother than they're worth. Even if they are rather intriguing at times...Bouncing between the quest that began Geoffrey's villainy career and the quest that may end it, Geoffrey P. Ward's Guide to Questing is a hilarious romp into the murky world of fairy tale heroes and villains as Geoffrey comes face to face with giants and trolls, fairies and witches, princes and princesses, and everything between.
