V. E. Schwab's New York Times bestselling Villains duology, now in a boxed set along with a gorgeous double-sided poster! In the Villains duology ( Vicious , Vengeful ) V. E. Schwab brings to life a gritty comic-book-style world in vivid prose: a world where gaining superpowers doesn't automatically lead to heroism, and a time when allegiances are called into question. "A dynamic and original twist on what it means to be a hero and a villain. A killer from page one...highly recommended!" --Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of Marvel Universe vs The Avengers and Patient Zero
