Bookroo's summary

Rune Drexler, a student at Master Dreadthorn's School for Wayward Villains, faces expulsion unless he completes a daunting Plot: find a henchman, steal a baby, kidnap a princess, and overthrow a kingdom. But Rune's heart isn't in it—he's more hero than villain. With his friends, Countess Jezebel Dracula and Big Bad Wolf Jr., Rune must navigate a fairy tale world where villainy is the lesson, but heroism might be the answer. Can Rune succeed without betraying his true nature, or will his heroic tendencies lead to unexpected consequences?

From the publisher

Rune Drexler, Big Bad Wolf Jr., and Countess Jezebel Dracula are students at Master Dreadthorn’s School for Wayward Villains. It’s like military school for the children of famous villains; it’s where you learn to be bad. But Rune is failing at his villainous studies, so when he lands himself in detention (again), Master Dreadthorn assigns him a Plot. In one week, Rune and his friends must find a henchman, steal a baby, kidnap a princess, and overthrow a kingdom. There’s only one problem: Rune’s not very evil. In fact, his behavior seems suspiciously heroic. . . . This hilarious adventure stretches across a fairy tale world where the mistakes of famous villains become valuable lessons for our heroes-er, villains. The mix of familiar characters and a wholly original Plot will delight young readers.
