Despicable Me meets Diary of a Wimpy Kid in this hilarious middle grade adventure that follows a hapless warlock-in-training as he struggles to live up to his great and terrible destiny.
Meet Wick. He's the son of the Dark Lord, heir to the throne of black and broken glass, and next in line to be the leader of the Grim World. Too bad he's stuck in Remedial Spell Casting (he can barely even cast the fart-revealer spell), he's allergic to fire and brimstone, and the bullies at school insist on calling him Dork Lord.
Full of humor, hijinks, and lively illustrations, Confessions of a Dork Lord follows Wick through the pages of his journal as he comes up with a genius plan to defeat his foes, achieve greatness . . . and survive Middle Ages School.

"It's not easy being bad. But this book will give you a head start." --Pseudonymous Bosch, bestselling author of the Secret series
