Kevin Darkmane has just landed his dream job—and he has no idea it’s evil.
Armed with colour-coded folders, a novelty tie pin, and an unshakeable belief in the power of positive thinking, Kevin arrives at the Dark Fortress ready to revolutionize their administrative systems. The screaming? Ambient branding. The blood rituals? Team-building exercises. The world domination plans? Ambitious market penetration strategy.
As the Dark Lord’s newest clerk, Kevin approaches every horror with the cheerful efficiency of someone who’s read far too many self-help books. He organises the torture chambers for better workflow. He conquers villages with cookies and dental plans. He suggests consent forms for the blood sacrifices.
The thing is, it’s working.
Kevin’s relentless optimism is accidentally dismantling an evil empire from within—and he’s too busy improving morale to notice. But when his “innovative management techniques” catch the attention of both heroes and villains, Kevin must navigate a world that doesn’t fit neatly into any spreadsheet.
Some people are born heroes. Others have heroism thrust upon them. Kevin just wanted to streamline the requisition process.
Perfect for fans of Terry Pratchett, T. Kingfisher, and anyone who’s survived corporate culture with their sense of humour intact.
