  • Rating(4.3 / 5.0)

Working as a henchman for his childhood crush hasn\'t been great.

But Sam is a hopeless romantic. Even though she\'s a failed supervillain, he decided to work with her so that he can at least stay by her side.

Although things began to change when Kiara, his childhood crush, started developing feelings for a particular young man.

Now if it was just any other guy, he would\'ve met with some unfortunate \'accident\' already but the guy in question was none other than the son of the strongest superhero himself.

Starboy aka Anthony Willburn, the reason for all their failures up until now; and she decided to fall for THAT guy!?

Sam couldn\'t accept this absurdity and decided to ruin his love rival\'s life by embracing his destiny and rising as a supervillain himself.

Set in a distant future where only the chosen few are graced with superpowers, the story will mainly focus on the perspective of our protagonist as he will enroll in an academy of superheroes to get close to his love rival and find his weakness all the while maintaining his life as a supervillain.

    "Villain's Rising" is a thought-provoking novel that challenges conventional notions of good and evil, weaving a complex tapestry of human emotions, ambition, and redemption. At its core, the story revolves around the rise of an unlikely anti-hero, whose journey from obscurity to notoriety forces readers to question societal norms and the blurred lines between morality. The protagonist's transformation is a masterclass in character development, as he grapples with power, guilt, and the consequences of his choices.

    The narrative skillfully explores the shades of grey within villainy, highlighting how circumstances and personal traumas can shape a person's actions. It delves into themes of loyalty, betrayal, and the search for identity, making the reader empathize with the villain's struggles even as they condemn his deeds. The author deftly employs symbolism and metaphor to deepen the layers of meaning, inviting readers to contemplate their own moral compasses.

    What sets "Villain's Rising" apart is its ability to humanize a traditionally despised character, encouraging readers to question their own judgments and consider the possibility of redemption for those who have strayed from the path of righteousness. In doing so, it reminds us that villains, like heroes, are products of their experiences and the world they inhabit. Overall, this compelling novel offers a profound commentary on the nature of humanity and the intricate dance between light and dark within each of us.

    I must say I really like the story development. I think the mc is not inherently evil, the way he was raised is evil, not experiencing the love of his parents and no friends. If he was rescued before all that he won't be thinking the way he is now but yeah the world is truly broken...actually there's no evil and good. Bruh I'm allergic to pure goodness without anything in exchange lol, that's absurd. I like how the mc is evil hehehehe. Although, can i just ask if the romance is already cut off from him or there will be another? how will this end I'm excited to find out

    How can anyone even like this? The main character is a complete loser. Honestly disgusting to read.

    Had to force myself into reading a chapter.

    The story has a lot of potential, but it is wasted in a easily evitable way.
    The most common problems are:
    - LOL.
    - The author explain as something work just to forget it and making it work in a different way.
    - Irrealistic or dumb plot device (alert minor spoiler, jump to the next point if you don’t want know: an explosion that erase 75 square km of the city where the mc is, but he says he doesn't know anything because he didn't watch the news and he was at a friend house, friend that previously he said was in the same city. To not add that even though the explosion happened in a residential district there were just 67 deaths).
    - Expression used in the wrong way.


    Although I may sound harsh (both here and in the comments) I don't want to offend the author, but just point out thing that in a much needed rewrite should be corrected.
    As said before the novel has a lot of potential and it sadden and annoy me to see it wasted.

    I hope to not have offended or upset the author with this review or my other comments.

    Nice premise, reading about a villain definitely has tons of potential, but this isn't a villain, it's just an edgy powertrip fantasy.

    Also, "lol" has no place in a novel, especially not if ou want it taken seriously.

    The world background is good, the little we know of it anyways, seems like other planets are populated, and the whole hero vs villain dynamic has a lot of potential, as it always has.

    I'll be stopping here however, no point reading more when i already think the MC is pathetic, not because of his killing or his god complex, but because of how he talks, how he acts and many other things.

    I hate to say it but the main character is a simp. Instead of making her fall in love with him, why does he act like the inferior and goes to mess with that other man. I think she doesn’t like him because he is too nice to her that caused her to Friendzone him.  Like the saying goes in order to capture one must let loose. He should never show that he likes her or she will feel less interested. Simping=Death
