Readers are drawn to these narratives for their unapologetic pragmatism and the satisfying way they subvert classic tropes. Whether they are building a dark empire or seeking absolute power at any cost, these protagonists offer a refreshing, high-stakes alternative to the typical savior narrative. Dive into dark fantasy and see what happens when the villain finally wins.
