The Dark Lord Clementine — Sarah Jean Horwitz

The new face of big evil is a little . . . small.
 
Dastardly deeds aren't exactly the first things that come to mind when one hears the name “Clementine,” but as the sole heir of the infamous Dark Lord Elithor, twelve-year-old Clementine Morcerous has been groomed since birth to be the best (worst?) Evil Overlord she can be. But everything changes the day her father is cursed by a mysterious rival.

Now, Clementine must not only search for a way to break the curse, but also take on the full responsibilities of the Dark Lord. But when it's time for her to perform dastardly deeds against the townspeople -- including her brand-new friends -- she begins to question her father's code of good and evil. What if the Dark Lord Clementine doesn't want to be a dark lord after all?
