It is with wicked delight that we announce the first-ever villain books of the Rippaverse! A hero is only as good as their villains, and truly good villains—actual baddies, not trauma-forged anti-heroes—are rare these days.
That will not be the case with Michael Copper: The Black Eye Club and Lilian Ronashi: The Cursed. These two? They were born bad, and it is gloriously refreshing.
As longtime Rippaverse readers know, the Soska Sisters have co-written titles such as Yaira, Bloodruth, Catch & Kill, and a handful of NDA-shrouded projects. But this is the very first time Jen and Sylvia are going solo. Ever wondered what separates the twins as writers? You’re about to find out—and trust us, the sights are glorious.
Both villain books launched simultaneously, adding a spark of sibling rivalry to the fire. The rules are simple:
Round 1: Highest sales take the win.
Round 2: Fan enthusiasm rules all.
Every comment, tag, testimonial, and shoutout will be tallied to uncover the ultimate champion.
The loser must wear the winner’s book shirt for an entire month, at future conventions for a whole year, and film a video praising the superior twin.
Which villain do you think will reign supreme?
If you hated Joker 2, you’re going to love Michael Copper: The Black Eye Club. This book is pure, unfiltered dark power fantasy—and fans have been dying to see Michael Copper unleashed.
If you picked up the Dokumaan Cards, you already know:
Michael Copper is an elite fighter, a dangerously charming businessman, and a man whose green eyes hide secrets no one is ready for.
Who is he really?
What can he do?
What brought him to Florespark—and what is this whispered “Black Eye Club”?
In Sylvia Soska’s solo debut, Copper is the villain you love to hate. He dresses with precision, surrounds himself with beautiful women, and leaves questions wherever he goes. Before he ever crossed paths with Lilian Ronashi, before he ever set foot in Florespark, he was busy carving an empire out of sin, charm, and ruthlessness.
And he enjoyed every minute of it.
Not to be outdone, Jen Soska delivers a chilling Japanese-horror–inspired nightmare with Lilian Ronashi: The Cursed.
Lilian may appear elegant and composed, but beneath her demure smile lies something far darker. Rippaverse fans already know her role in The Alphacore: the mastermind behind the events of the Eagles Nest situation.
You’ve seen her wield that eerie purple energy—
but what exactly is her power?
Where did it come from?
And why does misfortune cling to her like a shadow?
Long before she crossed paths with Michael Copper or arrived in Florespark, Lilian was already notorious. Her name carried equal parts allure and dread. And when Lilian Ronashi: The Cursed arrives, readers will finally get intimate, up-close time with the Rippaverse’s most exotic—and most dangerous—femme fatale.
Not only is this the first-ever dual villain release in Rippaverse history, it is also the first time the Soska Sisters have ever worked on entirely separate projects—finally answering the age-old question:
For years, fans have speculated about the differences between Jen and Sylvia’s storytelling styles. Now, for the very first time, readers won’t just be able to compare their work—they’ll be able to vote on it.
Readers and fans will have the chance to cast their verdict with their wallets and their voices, with full details on how to participate announced on release day. Your support will directly determine which twin earns bragging rights… and which one must face the consequences.
Two powerhouse villain books.
Two Soska Sisters writing solo for the first time.
One deliciously chaotic rivalry.
This isn’t just a launch—it’s a literary showdown wrapped in darkness, ambition, and twin-born competition. Both books arrive simultaneously, each dripping with the signature horror, tension, and wicked imagination that made the Soska Sisters icons of the genre.
And while the rivalry is fierce, the fans are the real winners: two jaw-dropping villain stories, double the chaos, double the nightmares, double the fun.
