For fans of A Dowry of Blood, Clytemnestra, and Piranesi, Vile Lady Villains is an unforgettable literary escape. When Lady Macbeth flees the consequences of her crimes through a witch's brew, she stumbles into a realm between stories—only to collide with Klytemnestra, Queen of Mycenae, mid-vengeance. Hunted by wraiths through nightmarish worlds, these two infamous villains must forge an unlikely alliance to survive. As they navigate treacherous trials and encounter The Mistress of the House of Books, an ancient goddess with her own agenda, their ill intentions ignite into something neither author dared write. Faced with a choice—return to their tragic tales or rewrite their destinies together—Claret and Anassa discover that sometimes the most dangerous love stories are written by those bold enough to burn the world down. A stunningly original blend of Shakespearean and Greek mythology, Vile Lady Villains celebrates vicious women, second chances, and the power to reclaim your own narrative. Dense, dark, and overwhelmingly magical—a spellbinding quest through metafiction where literature's most infamous female villains finally get the unfettered life they deserve.
