Nearly every Fantasy book I’ve ever read
has at least one villain intent on causing as much harm or mischief as possible
and while this makes for an exciting story, not every author treads the path to
explore why the villain is the way he/she is. I have to wonder why this is;
maybe it’s because the writer is wrapped up in the emotions and back story of
the protagonists, maybe they are so busy making their villain evil and plotting
the next dastardly trick that they forget to look at the true character behind
the evil, and maybe they just didn’t think about it.
