School of Villains
Synopsis:
Unwelcome to the School of Villains!
Here, literary villains study to become true villains. Although Colmillo Villalobos knows he’ll never pass: he’s a ridiculous villain, a werewolf afraid of the dark, for Hades’ sake!
After a magical and disastrous attempt to impress a writer visiting the School, Colmillo is in for a most chilling punishment... unless he manages to get out of it. To do so, he will embark on a surreal adventure with Clara Malagente, his fierce best friend, and Merche Sarmiento, the School’s most brilliant and wacky inventor. On top of that, they will have to avoid Gary Stu, an annoying hero’s apprentice determined to lead them on the right path.
