Thirty-two-year-old Charlie Fisher’s life is going nowhere fast in John Scalzi’s Starter Villain. His half-siblings are keen to sell his old family home, where he lives with his two cats; he’s barely making a living as a substitute teacher; he’s been denied the bank loan to purchase a local tavern. When his estranged billionaire uncle Jake Baldwin dies, Jake’s assistant approaches him with a proposition and enough money to realize his dreams. There’s a catch, though: Uncle Jake was a super villain, and his enemies are after Charlie.
