Download As PDF : Malevolence eBook Peter Jaggs
Best-selling author of books about Thailand and Asia Peter Jaggs takes time out from his more usual light-hearted travelogues to bring his readers a haunting tale of violence, greed and retribution in the Thai underworld.
First told to him as a true story in a bar in Pattaya by an ancient mamasan, Jaggs has molded the old woman’s reminiscences into a chilling tale that those of a weak constitution might do better to leave well alone.
Peppered with almost Dickensian characters from the backstreets of Bangkok and Pattaya and seasoned with insights into the sub-culture of the outcasts of Thailand, ‘Malevolence’ is a book that will keep you turning the pages in fascinated horror, towards a harrowing twist in the final pages that will keep the nightmares recurring for many months to come.
Jaggs’ writing can be insightful, but don’t expect it to be too politically correct

Malevolence eBook Peter Jaggs
I've read five of Jagg's books now and have really enjoyed his writing style and material (no, I don't know him).The book Malevolence was a really good/dark read chalked full of suspense and the not-so-nice side of some of the characters. The character development was as good as usual from Jaggs and the storyline did not disappoint at all. I usually do most of my reading at night before I turn in, but couldn't put the book down several times. It's a really easy page-turner!
I don't want to give spoilers or anything away in the book, but highly recommend it.
-Great storyline
-A+ character development
-Great resolution for closure in the book (didn't feel left hanging or wondering)
-Story was plausible
-Their weren't any dry moments in the book that you feel like you have to wade through, it flows well

Malevolence eBook Peter Jaggs Reviews
In Malevolence Peter Jaggs has written a powerful and compelling novella that convincingly portrays a number of unnervingly real characters as they encounter a sociopathic devil hell-bent on gaining power through brutal violence and subtle manipulation.
Peter Jaggs claims to have gotten the tale, piece by piece, from an aging mamasan and has fictionalized the astonishing true story of a malevolent young man as he rises to destructive power in Pattaya.
As the unwanted son of an American G.I. and a Thai bargirl the protagonist is sold as an infant and raised by the brutal hand of a Soi Cowboy bar owning farang, quickly earning the nickname Pi Saat, or `Devil,' through his vicious and violent personality.
Malevolence is a story of violence, revenge and loyalty set in the seedy underbelly of Thailand's bar scene and in my view it is a story that could not have been told any better, signaling Peter Jaggs as a highly skilled writer supremely confident in his craft.
At just over one hundred pages I completed it in one sitting but suspect that had it been double in length I probably would not have stopped, given the writer's ability to draw the reader into such an authentically rendered tale.
Jaggs is the author of a number of very well received books on Thailand ranging from guides on freshwater fishing and metal detecting to short stories and real-life anecdotes. Malevolence is a little different but it is an absolute triumph of Thai-centric storytelling.
