Vicious & Vengeful set by V.E. Schwab (Illumicrate Exclusive)
Presenting our Illumicrate Exclusive Anniversary editions of the first two books in Villains series - Vicious and Vengeful! A brilliant series that follows the twisted relationship between two men in a world where people have superpowers, they are books beloved by many in the team. We’re overjoyed that we could return to one of our favourite series for this Illumicrate Anniversary set.
We also have plans to do Victorious, the third and final book in the Villains series, upon release that will match this set. We will also be assessing interest for editions of Victorious in the prior red jacket versions we did for this series.
Victor and Eli started out as college roommates—brilliant, arrogant, lonely boys who recognized the same sharpness and ambition in one another. A shared research interest in adrenaline, near-death-experiences, and seemingly supernatural events reveals an intriguing possibility: that under the right conditions, someone could develop extraordinary abilities. But when their thesis moves from the academic to the experimental, things go horribly wrong. They become EOs, ExtraOrdinaries, leaving a body in their wake and turning on each other.
Ten years later Victor has escaped from prison and is determined to get his revenge on the man who put him there, aided by a young girl with the ability to raise the dead. Eli has spent the years hunting down and killing every EO he can find, convinced that they are a crime against God, all except his sidekick, a woman whose power is persuasion and whom he cannot defy. Armed with terrible power on both sides, driven by the memory of betrayal and loss, the arch-nemeses have set a course for revenge—but who will be left alive at the end?

- An exclusive redesigned cover on an acetate jacket (art by @eleonorpiteira; design by @chattynora)
- Art and foil on the hardbacks (art by @eleonorpiteira; design by @chattynora)
