I must say that I was not expecting a book where the main characters get caught in a comic book would have me as entertained as this one did.The story follows Seth as he enters the world of Malice to look for his lost friend. Along the way you find yourself cheering him on as he fights through the secrets of the clockwork beasts that inhabit Malice. The comic scenes add geat vision to the story all ready in your mind and always seem to be the major action scenes in the book. Without giving to much away I must say that there were several parts that completely caught me off guard from what I expected to happen. I like books where you think you know what will occur then BAM!! you get something very different.At the end I must say I am eagerly awaiting part two titled Havoc. ### ⭐⭐ Not what it seems *by J***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2016* What a disappointment. Having had read the summary of the book I immediately knew, or at least thought I knew, this would be an amazing book.The premise was brilliant. The delivery turned out being a lazily put together unoriginal story gathering plot ideas from several films (the matrix and jumanji to name a few, which would be amazing if well executed, but floppily fails to deliver.The characters are underdeveloped and two dimensional and the story follows a single (and simple) journey which never gets anywhere.The book ends setting up its sequel which i'm just not interested in reading!After having had read the Ketty Jay series and absolutely loving it, I picked up this book hoping it to being the next great adventure series I got hooked on.However, I feel like this was written with the hopes of it being picked up for the next YA movie. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A wild success for my 4th grader! *by G***M on Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2011* I should start out with a disclaimer: I haven't read this book. I bought this for my reluctant reader based on the premise and other Amazon reviews. I was a voracious reader at his age, and I have hoped to instill a love of books in him as well, but... it's hard to compete with the Wii, the X-box, Cartoon Network and UB Funkeys. Any book he's ever read he was out of necessity for school. Most nights I come home from work and practically have to pry the boy off the computer. Imagine my surprise and delight to come home and find him reading. READING! An actual book! I just about clicked my heels with glee, people. I couldn't believe it. Not only has this book trumped his interest in video games, the internet, and TV, the only thing that distracts him is wanting to talk about the story in great detail. Ok, so 10-yr olds don't edit, and he rambles on & on. I don't care. He's so enthusiastic it's a pleasure to listen to him describe the story. If it took standing on my head and playing the banjo to get him to read, I would've done it; instead, it just took the right book. As far as reading levels go, this book seems perfect for tweens and maybe young teens. I like that the vocabulary has challenged him; he has come to me twice, to ask me how to say "menagerie" and "oubliette." We got to find out together that oubliette is a medieval word for dungeon. How cool is that! I'm hoping I can remember some of the books I loved at his age; two that come to mind are The Witches of Worm and The Lion's Paw. Any other suggestions are welcome and much appreciated! As far as my rating for Malice? Any book that compels a 10-yr old boy to read deserves 10 stars. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/23388663-malice-1-hardcover-october-1-2009](https://www.desertcart.us/products/23388663-malice-1-hardcover-october-1-2009) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
