An Excerpt from "Malcolm" a Novel

Malcolm is an interesting fellow. He is a hunter who is single minded when it comes to his prey. In this introductory first book, we learn about him and his talents. We learn about his childhood and his mentor. Malcolm is not a serial killer. He does have some of the tendencies of one but he is not. In telling the story, we pit him against the most despicable of persons as we could find. There will be no love lost for them and their fate. The story is fast pace and reads like a movie script. Below you will find and excerpt from the book. Have a look and hope you enjoy it. Thank you.


PRELUDE

 
I am what I am.  I have no qualms about that.  I have been aware of my true nature since childhood.  I am aware of my urges and to what those urges could lead.  But, I see no reason why I should prey on the weak, the old and the helpless.  I have read about my kind.  I have some insight into their behavior.  They seek out a certain segment of our society.  They seem to be guided by an unseen hand.  The answer to this is as clear as it is hidden.  And even though I was brought up Catholic, I am not a religious man.  But those who are religious would say; they are doing the bidding of their master. There is some truth to that.  However, that is not the case with me.  I fear God and not much else.  I seek to fulfill my own personal self-gratifications and to cultivate my own insatiable urges.  My name is Malcolm, Malcolm Forbes.  If you are weak, helpless and un-challenging, you have nothing to fear from me.  If you believe yourself to be strong, untouchable and a master of the universe, you and I will be having a conversation.  Again, my name is Malcolm and soon, it will be time to “PLAY.”
