The Heroic Villain

The Heroic Villain is a GameLit series following Lucas, a former CEO who escapes into virtual reality after a tragic accident. He initially seeks solace, but when his newfound paradise is threatened, he embraces a new role: the villain.

In the first book, Lucas takes charge by overthrowing local lords to save his world, joining the evil Imperium, and designing a dungeon. He struggles to gain power and build an entourage of minions while realizing it's not an easy task.

The series continues as Lucas expands his influence, now as a dungeon master on the mainland. He is shunned for being an upstart and must fight for survival while establishing a new base and forming alliances in a hostile land. Lucas faces enemies inside his organization and external threats to prove himself as the greatest villain the game world has ever known.
