Diary of an Evil Overlord — Lorna Reid

Do you ever wish you hadn't killed your parents?Nate Evergrim does. By the time he realises that the evil domain he just 'inherited' comes with far more problems than he ever imagined, it's too late... he got what he wanted and now, he'll get what he deserves.The west wing of the castle is falling down after being undermined by dwarves, the kitchens are overrun with mutant weevils, and the builders have walked off the restoration of the torture chamber for health and safety reasons.Wilfully obtuse staff, stupid minions, and a grandmother who (despite his best efforts) just won't die, are the least of his worries. Time is running out for him to find enough gold to quell a mutiny, if he can just survive his devious mistress and stave off invasion from... well... everyone, especially the local Heroes' Guild, who have a quota to meet. And to make matters worse, Health and Safety's most dangerous inspector has just arrived.Minion Morale Day (with shiny-ish prizes) may just be his saving grace... after all, with his rag-tag band of misfits and minions in charge, what could go wrong?★Publisher note: Written in British English & contains swearing and sarcasm. No mutant weevils were harmed during the writing of this book.
