Recommend me a book about messing with the wrong person
I've read too much recently about real world serial killers, corruption, abuse. I need a good revenge fantasy. Someone who seriously fucks up with the wrong person. Like you tought you were a psycho but this person was "born in the darkness". Maybe a supernatural being or a vigilante or just your average grandma who goes total war. I want the abuser too reeeeally suffer.
I have read "Best served cold" and it's good but not on the level I'm looking for. I see "Red" being recommended and might pick it up.

The Stars my Destination by Alfred Bester. They fucked with the wrong Gully
Atlanta Burns by Chuck Wendig is this, but might not be hard enough for you, YA
And the OG would be Count of Monte Cristo
Edit to add Harlan Ellison Pretty Maggie Moneyeyes and I Have no Mouth
I’ll second the Count of Monte Cristo. There’s really no better revenge story.
The Revenant
No country for old men
The Girl in the Moon by Terry Goodkind
definitely check out “the chain” by adrian mckinty.. guy kidnaps a kid and forces the mom into this revenge cycle that completely backfires on him. she goes from scared parent to absolute nightmare real quick.
