Being BAD has never felt so GOOD! The second book in the villainously funny, highly illustrated young middle-grade series from author-illustrator Ryan Hammond. For fans of Amelia Fang, Dog Man and Grimwood. Don't miss the third installment, How to Win the Gruesome Games, out in April 2024!
'A charmingly villainous adventure about friendship, school and unspeakable evil.' Louie Stowell, author of Loki: A Bad God's Guide to Being Good
'Criminally fun!' Danny Wallace, author of The Day the Screens Went Blank
It's the start of the winter term and there's a new teacher in town at Villains Academy - the notorious dragon-rider Felix Frostbite. Class Z are in awe of him and his lessons on venomous beasts and mythical creatures, but werewolf Bram is suspicious. Soon Bram and his friends the Cereal Killers uncover Felix Frostbite's evil plan to steal all the dragons from the Wicked Woods and leave Villains Academy undefended. Have the gang learnt enough to outsmart their troublesome teacher, or will Felix Frostbite's heist go down in villain history?
