A comic book exists that no parent knows about. It's fame and location of sale are only known by rumor. After you read it, the words fade within a few days.

If you read the chant it holds inside six times with the right objects, Tall Jake will come to get you and suck you into his dangerous world.

A world filled with life-drinking robots and things far worse. If you're lucky enough to survive and get a white ticket, you can return home, but there's no guarantee that you'll even remember your home when you get back.

Will you be one of the lucky ones to make it home alive?

An entertaining horror/adventure story for reluctant readers. The characters are well-developed and the bad guys are wonderfully creepy. The plot moves quickly and holds the reader's interest. Those who like comic books, video games, horror, and adventure will truly enjoy reading MALICE.
