I AM LORD VOLDEMORT: The Life of Tom Marvolo Riddle & His Flight from Death
written by Regulus Viridian Fawkes
A biography on the life of Tom Marvolo Riddle, infamously known as "Lord Voldemort," a man so feared by the wizarding community that not even Rita Skeeter would dare to write about He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.

Dear Reader(s),
Greetings of Peace!
The world we live in is at its most peaceful since the conclusion of the 19th century (1800-99). The 20th century was marked by heightened tensions, internal struggle, and external conflict in both the Muggle and Wizarding communities worldwide, marked by the World Wars (WWI & WWII) & Grindlewald's Uprising and the Wizarding Wars (First and Second), respectively. However, it is the last three decades marked by an atmosphere of fear & uncertainty.
We can learn a lot from Tom Marvolo Riddle, otherwise known to us wizardkind as LORD VOLDEMORT -- what not to do & how not to be. We can learn a lot from who is now considered the most powerful wizarding tyrant to ever walk the face of the Earth. We can learn a lot from this man, marked by his ruthlessness & indifference towards others, as you will soon find out through the biography - "I AM LORD VOLDEMORT: The Life of Tom Marvolo Riddle & His Flight From Death."
Whilst we pride ourselves in our superiority to the non-magical folk, we can also strengthen our desire to never again repeat Riddle's mistakes through this Muggle quote:
"Those who cannot remember the past, are condemned to repeat it." (George Santanyana)
Riddle did not learn from the mistakes of Grindlewald, becoming more twisted & psychopathic in the process. To any future wizarding tyrants reading this, just remember: you are doomed to fail.
Truly yours,
Regulus Viridian Cojuangco-Fawkes
