Favorite literary villain?

Littleone · Senior Member

Jajang from Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth series. He's someone you love to hate.

Hmm...how villainous do they need to be?

Game of Thrones - Tyrion, but I'm only counting him as 'villain' because I'm pulling for a different character.

Actual villain of a book...I'll have to think on that.

oooo this is a tough one. So many books!

Moon-and-Star · Someone's watching me - I can feel it.

I love Heathcliff from Wuthering Heights, but whether or not he's an actual villain is up for debate.

Omega from the Black Dagger Brotherhood series.

Evil Stepmother · Guru

Count Saint-Germain from The Saint-Germain Chronicles by Chelsia Quinn Yarbro. The series was started way before Twilight made vampires popular.

RichardInTN · I believe in I.D.I.C.

I've been thonking about this for days... and I can't come up with one. Not because there are two or three that are "tied"... but because, generally, the villains are forgotten.

Excellent point, Richard! I'm sitting here trying to think of one and none are coming to mind!

That's a hard one.

I just read Mildred Pierce, and found Veda supremely hateable. She is a good villain in that sense but I'm not sure I loved to hate her, or just hated her.

Count Fosco from The Woman in White is good.

If we are including villains who are also protaganists I guess I might include Humbert Humbert (Lolita), Raskolnikov (Crime and Punishment) and Tom Ripley (Patricia Highsmith's Ripley novels)
