The Demon Overlord retires to farm turnips in peace, only to find small village life more chaotic than he ever could have anticipated. 

“A wonderful romp with a Dark Lord who gets a taste for Pratchett-esque small town living, assisted (kind of) by a floofy hellhound and a devious goat. Lots of fun!” ––Django Wexler, author of How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying 

Galornus Prime was the Demon Overlord. He had defeated the Hero and done everything worth doing - some of it more than once. 

His retirement plan was simple: get a goat, farm quietly in the small town of Lower Middleton, and avoid accidentally conquering anything. The plan didn't include soul-crushing town halls, after-school combat lessons with children, and an undergarment-based war with the rose-growing widow next door. 

When corrupt officials and greedy merchants threaten his infuriatingly loveable neighbors, Galornus faces a new kind of challenge: saving the village without revealing he is the monster parents invoke to make children eat their vegetables.

The Demon Overlord’s Retirement Plan is a cozy fantasy with teeth, where the hardest battle isn’t defeating heroes—it’s staying retired and learning how to live after 444 lifetimes of villainy.
