Review: How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying
How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying by Django Wexler My rating: 4 of 5 stars I received an eARC of this title from the publisher through NetGalley. Django Wexler taps into his comedic side here with this trope-shattering humorous fantasy adventure. Our narrator, Davi, has been suffering through a Groundhog Day type situation where she's on a quest to save the world, only to have it reset back to the beginning whenever she's killed in the attempt to defeat whatever forces of evil the Kingdom is forced to deal with. After a thousand years of this, Davi is fed up. She's looking to spit in the eye of fate by changing her own narrative. Instead of trying to save the world and ultimately failing, she's going to BE the Dark Lord, gather her minions, and try it from the other side..... This was a lot of fun, often hilarious, and even had some heart wrenching moments. Great stuff, and I'll be looking forward to the next stage in Dav...
