COMING IN 2027

EDITED BY JOSHUA BLACKBURN
ILLUSTRATED BY NOMA BAR
PUBLISHED BY OFFBEAT PRESS
LAUNCHING ON KICKSTARTER

Evil Genius is a book for all who love, admire and respect villains.  Drawing on a Who’s Who of baddies spanning over 2,000 years, it is the first dictionary of quotations composed entirely of villains. With 1,000 entries and over 400 of the finest rogues ever imagined, it represents the best of the worst.

Many of the names found in Evil Genius are the stuff of legend: Blofeld, Corleone, Ewing, Iago, Loki, Ultron, White and more. But this isn't a book about the evil they do, it’s about the genius that lies behind it.

Edited by Joshua Blackburn (author of The Language-Lover’s Lexipedia) and with artwork by world-renowned illustrator Noma Bar, Evil Genius is not only authoritative, but beautiful too.

Evil Genius is published by Offbeat Press and launching on Kickstarter in October.
