Try the Dresden Files. The main villain in the first one was the good guy gone bad, yet he isn't overly cliche. I really think it's something you'd get into. The main character gives out wit and sarcasm really well and he's very likable, with flaws you can clearly see, he definitely isn't overpowered. In fact, the more powerful he gets, the harder his challenges become. Look it up. The Dresden Files.

Hmm. The Vampires I actually like, their closer to the myths, not this sparkly new crap that Meyer created. You should really try to finish it, get past it, however, the Red Court is a recurring organization, but if you don't like them, you may like what happens to them later on.

 

Edit: Mavra is Black Court, is she the one your talking about? I didn't like her either, but she isn't really a main villain. Which two are you referring two?

I don't want to seem rude or anything, but you quit reading a book simply because you didin't like two characters? Your not going to like every character you come across, and your going to miss out on a lot of good books if you simply choose not to read something simply because of one or two characters you don't like. I'd recommend finishing up that book and continuing, the series really is good. Oh, and those two are white court I think, been awhile since I've read that one, but I'm fairly sure they don't appear to much in that book, though they do appear.

No I mean I like reading about only 1 or 2 characters. If there is more than that many plotlines It usually gets really jumbled up and I lose interest.

Well, I quit ASOIAF because of Dany and Tyrion.I DESPISE those two with ever fibre of my being. I couldn't just "put up" with them even if I wanted to. Though they are much bigger characters thann those two from Dresden.

 

Nah, WOT was the reason I put the Dresden book on hold. I didn't quit it. I'm just going to come back to it later

Ah, okay, good. For a moment there, I was going to be wondering how you read ANY book. I didn't like Game of Thrones either, just don't like the characters or the plot very much.

I think you should just write a story yourself... You wouldn't be satisfied with anything else.

I don't want to come of as rude, so if you feel insulted what I'm about to say please forgive me. Do you maybe have some issues that prohibit you from enjoying things 100%?

None that I'm aware of. I just find certain characters irritating and I don't like watching heroes be badass unless I REALLY like them. Whih is almost never.

 

I love villains and antagonists. I find them the best part of media, and I hate it when a work doesn't let them have the competence they deserve

Well you can read brent weeks second series (the lightbringer series), you might like it cuz the hero isn't rand or a god(yet)

For the love of all that's holy. A flaming villain is ALL I WANT.

 

(shudders) It's not fair

aah but the villian is a genius in the light-bringer series, but its not done yet

 

(i really recommend it for you)

I don't watch a lot of movies. Have you watched animes at all? I find they generally have better storylines and characters than american shows. My only gripe is that they seem to enjoy having main characters who are complete wusses. Not all of them do that though, and most of the ones that do at least do it to set them up for major character development. Eureka Seven is the only one where I stopped watching because the mc just got too wearing after a while.

 

Anyway, I think you might enjoy Death Note. The protagonist is the villian to some extent, and it brings up interesting questions about morality and right and wrong.

Death Note is one of my favourite shows ever.

 

I loved L. He's my favourite antagonist ever.

 

Really? My problem with most anime is getting through the first few episodes where the heroes easily win and show off.

 

Any other anime you watch with good villains?
