From the author of Very Bad People, another thrilling exploration of the worlds worst warlords, grifters and kleptocrats and the brilliant investigators taking them downA small number of people, motivated by an insatiable greed for power and wealth, and backed by a pinstripe army of enablers (and sometimes real armies too), have driven the world to the brink of destruction. They are the supervillains of corruption and war, some with a power greater than nation state and the capacity to derail the world order. Propping up their opulent lifestyles is a mess of crime, violence and deception on a monumental scale. But there is a fightback: small but fearless groups of brilliant undercover sleuths closing in on them, one step at a time.In Terrible Humans, Patrick Alley, cofounder of Global Witness and the author of Very Bad People, introduces us to some of the worlds worst warlords, grifters and kleptocrats who can be found everywhere from presidential palaces to the board rooms of some of the worlds best known companies. Pitted against them, the book also follows the people unravelling the deals, tracking the money and going undercover at great risk. From the oligarch charged with ordering the killing of an investigative journalist to the mercenary army seizing the natural resources of an entire African country, this is a whirlwind tour of the dark underbelly of the worlds super powerful and wickedly wealthy, and the daring investigators dragging them into the light.

Honestly, I was a bit disappointed with 'The World's Most Corrupt Supervillains'. I expected more stories and less political jargon. Some chapters were interesting, but overall it felt like a chore to get through. Not exactly what I was hoping for.

Interesting but a bit dense
I found 'The World's Most Corrupt Supervillains' intriguing, but some sections felt overwhelming with information. It tackles serious subjects, which is great, but I wished it had a bit more narrative flow. Still, it's worth a read if you can power through the tougher parts.

Fascinating insights on corruption
I picked up 'The World's Most Corrupt Supervillains' after hearing about it from a friend. The book dives deep into the shady dealings of corrupt leaders, and the writing is engaging throughout. It's a real eye-opener if you're interested in politics and social justice.
