This week's question is: Who is your favorite villain from a book?

There are a lot of villains off the top of my head that I can think of, and generally they are all great. If I walk away from the book hating them, then I think they make a fabulous villain.

I'm going to choose the Lord Ruler from the Mistborn Trilogy by Brandon Sanderson

  He rules the Final Empire and is pretty terrifying because by all appearances, he is immortal.

    I bet there will be quite a few this week who don't know my pick, but he was just too good a villain to pass up. Thank you for hosting, and stopping by :)

    I haven't read this book either, but I agree, if you walk away disliking the villain, then he has definitely earned his title.

    I'm not familiar with this book but an immortal villain is terrifying. How do you kill someone who cant be killed,
