What is Evil Dominion?

Evil Dominion is an on-going fantasy action-adventure novel series.
A fledgling Villain known simply as Overlord Zed, arrives in the backwater Dominion of Hallowville as he begins to assemble his forces and start his earnest quest towards World Domination.

The Dominions of the Planet are as varied as the people he encounters. So, as he makes a long journey towards an impossible goal, he deals with Heroes, Villains, Cultures, Morality, Relationships, and worst of all, Himself.

Connecting the Circuit

Infinite knowledge, unfalteringly efficient, produces at infinitum, yet still can’t think of a better name than Badguy.

ANARCHY CIRCUIT IS RELEASED!
(Finally!)

“FIX OUR MISTAKES.”

Join Overlord Zed and the team as they are caught in a conspiracy between two vastly different Dominions. Rec heads to Michstein, full of robots and cyborgs, where everything is perfectly shaper and constructed. July heads to Fawkland, where chaos and violence are near constant occurrences, where the leader changes with every murder. Meanwhile, the Overlord himself has to deal with the most terrifying force that’s ever visited his Dominion, and struggles with getting them to leave.

Unravel the secrets of the Anarchy Circuit, and finally find out the backstory to one of the most illusive member of the team: “Blue Witch” Onzera. (Excuse the spoilers, but I thought I’d save the reveal.)

Available now as a Five-Part Saga

Anarchy Circuit – Part One: Initiate
Anarchy Circuit – Part Two: Process
Anarchy Circuit – Part Three: Iterate
Anarchy Circuit – Part Four: Compile
Anarchy Circuit – Part Five: Debug

Anarchy Circuit (Complete Edition) – Only available on SetaMasters.com

BRAND NEW STORES

All previous volumes of Evil Dominion are available on these platforms as well, with their prices and formatting as uniform as possible between platforms. (Give some time to process the upload, and remember, we can’t control how well these sites treat your purchase.)

Here is how they appear on the book page. (In order: Amazon, Rakuten Kobo, Google Play, Gumroad.)

We are working on going to more sites to offer the series, but those are taking a while. Please do message if you want a specific place. Speaking of, check the links at the top of the page; you can now find my Reddit account which is definitely an easy way to contact me, along with most of the other places. (Beware: Reddit contains my most critical opinions. I love going on r/writing and lecturing the young’uns.)

EVEN MORE IMPS!

Also also, check out our revitalised IMP PLUSH page. My wonderful friend has been practising her skills and is now offering crocheted imps, along with her patterns for making them. In fact, purchase one of her patterns now and get a discounted bundle of it with Book One (Rise of the Red Hand).

Vandergought’s face. CLICK IT!

SUBSCRIBBLE

Also also also, don’t forget to SUBSCRIBE to the page using the contact form. Be kept up to date on any more deals that go live, and progress on EVIL DOMINION: ANNIHILATION AT HAND, which is now in production. No time frame yet, but that’s why you need to subscribe.

I’m never doing a project this long, ever, ever, again. Not to say it wasn’t an immensely fun and satisfying story to write (and I hope you enjoy it, sincerely) but the production pipeline just triples everything, along with… life getting in the way.…

A Glorious Following

He’s got spirit, but luckily, he’s not the writer around here. Just smile and wave Badguy. Get me those hits.

Okay, so I thought I set up a subscription system around here, but apparently that just… disappeared? Whatever. There is now a system around here, as in you should see the “Get Updates” box on the front page, right? Sign up there to get regular updates on the series. It won’t be often, but it will tell you when a new book releases, when deals are going on around here or other sites, or when something really super exciting happens.

Check your email (and/or spam folder) for the welcome letter, because there is a special incentive. For a limited time.

You get Evil Dominion: Rise of the Red Hand – dramatic pause – COMPLETELY FREE, in PDF form. Go to the book page, click to buy the PDF, go to the checkout, and enter the code within your welcome letter – it should discount you 100% on the copy, and then its just yours. Have at it.

The email also contains an email address to contact me, that’s far better than the social media sites. But do feel free to message me on Facebook, Instagram and BlueSky for any questions/business enquires. I promise I’ll try to be active on them.

Welcome to the Red Hand. We’ll take over the world soon enough.…

The Coward’s Update

Sometimes the simplest things become Badguy’s saviour. This box smells funny though.

Okay… life gets in the way. Everything is tentatively done, but edits are taking substantially more time than thought. (And not just because I’ve dramatically changed writing styles again, to suit a small chapter size format). Of course, we’re talking about Anarchy Circuit here, but there is good news!

In all the time its taking to get through Anarchy Circuit, I have redone each of the books again. Realising some of my redundant flaws (possibly linked to some undiagnosed Autism quirks), I’ve been able to remove a lot of unnecessary baggage in my writing. Don’t look at me like that, it was probably obvious to everyone and I’m only seeing them now. It’s hard to see ones own flaws, but I’m always growing as a writer. I call it the Coward’s Update because I realise it was also based in me not trusting my abilities and readers, so I was the coward here, and I’m taking a step forward.

I present to you:
Evil Dominion – Rise of the Red Hand (3rd Edition)
Evil Dominion – Brothers of the Sun (3rd Edition)
Evil Dominion – Rhapsody of Fortune (2nd Edition)

Rhapsody of Fortune now comes in THREE PARTS, for ease of digestion and physical versions, but I still recommend getting the fully complete version on this site, ideally in PDF. They are now:
Part One – Entry of the Gladiators
Part Two – Everything She Wants
(SAME MATERIAL, NEW SECTION. Listed as 2nd Edition as well.)
Part Three – Killer Queen

These are all again available on Amazon and in the BOOK section, and the Intro pages in the FAQ are updated with them.

As for Anarchy Circuit itself, it is about 70% done in the editing. I might even release the first part early, so keep an eye out for that. Meanwhile, I will also keep working on Annihilation At Hand, and whoa boy… is this one going to be a doozy. In storytelling. I hope not to do something as big as Anarchy Circuit again, please.

The Brute Force Approach

The Post-Modernist Story is Man vs. Machine. But Dr. Badguy always thought it was always missing an extra step.

So… I lied on the timeframe. What else do you expect?

To be fair, part ONE of Anarchy Circuit is done. It’s going through the read-throughs and editors right now, but I’ll ideally want to release ALL FIVE PARTS at once. So, please be patient. There will be a sudden influx of content eventually, but for now, I thought I better make this update post.

Even the art is done for the covers of all five issues, and those will be put on the site eventually under all the usual merchandise. Though, two of them are heavily spoilerific art, so expect a bit more coyness when it comes to posting them. The biggest slog is the editing process – my own editing process – where I cross the i’s and dot the t’s myself, before it’s all able to be seen by any mortal eyes. It’ll be done, when my soul recovers.

Though, I have to admit I’m already being rather a bad… guy… hehe. I’ve already started on Book 5. Hereby known and titled as EVIL DOMINION: ANNIHILATION AT HAND. In this book, the team encounter a threat far greater and more mysterious than ever before, the sadistic Kheir, who is determined to spread chaos and misery across the continent. But for what reason? Only Zed – and Zed alone – can know for sure. (I’ll work on the synopsis, I promise. But I think it’ll be one of my finest works.)

As for the website, the links still work, even if it looks like they are degrading even more. I’m not an expert at this website business, but I’ll try again. Hopefully it’ll be fixed by the time someone reads this post.…

A Kernel of an Update

Villains have been making A.I. for years. Dr. Badguy could barely beat minesweeper.

Okay, so let’s do this.

The preview for the first chapter of Anarchy Circuit is now up on the website and can be found at the top of the FAQ (along with the other previews).

On the book as a whole, the progress is getting there… but that may be because it has exploded into 5 individual books in one Anarchy Circuit saga. They’ll still be released at once, because I want a singular cohesive story, but I figure releasing shorter but cheaper books would make a more palatable story overall.

I’ve been considering doing the same with Rhapsody of Fortune, turning it into three average sized books instead of two larger ones. Possibly even Brothers of the Sun. The dividing doesn’t change much, but if it makes it more palatable for people, I’m all for it. The full stories will still be able to bought here on the site as either form, but contact me know if you have any strong opinion one way or the other.

As for Anarchy Circuit itself, it is currently on Chapter 44 out of a (predicted) 57. I’m currently in that process of a taboggan going downhill, where everything is laid out and just speeding me towards a climax. Adding editing, checks, art, I am going to say a very loose late September (?) for the release of everything all at once, but even committing to that seems like an insane idea, so I’ll say no more.

I’m also working on adding Character Bios to the site once I’m free enough and competent enough to do so. And an extra special site preview chapter for those that dare venture here. Of course, all my efforts are going into the main books, so those take priority.

I hope what comes next is enjoyable for people as it is for me writing it. Hope to update more, sooner rather than later.

Sidenote: I am trying to sort out the double-button error on the purchase page. I’m not entirely sure what has happened, but the store itself still functions and clicking the first of the buttons does still add the book to your purchase. Please understand until I can fix it.…
