    I am looking for a clever Machiavellian protagonist, in any category. Preferably not evil just a very good at what they do.

    Somebody where you go “oh, that’s clever”

    My favorite example is Pratchetts Lord Vetinari.

    Thanks!

    1. I really enjoyed how Hilary Mantel wrote Thomas Cromwell in her Wolf Hall series (*Wolf Hall, Bringing Up the Bodies,* and *The Mirror & the Light*). I usually don’t read historic fiction, but his character’s maneuvering was so fascinating that I got sucked right in.
