In any book, cartoon or film we all love to see the heroes defeat the villains, save the world, win the girl and live happily ever after. But just between you and we, don't we feel a little bit sorry for the villains as well?
Saruman, from The Lord of the Rings, is an all-time favourite villain, the type of villain I like. He is a tall wizard with a long white robe and carries a magic staff. Once he was a good wizard but the power of a magic ring has made him evil and greedy and now he wants to rule the world. Only Frodo, the small ring bearer, can stop him.
