ma*lig*ni*ty  (m-lgn-t)n. pl.ma*lig*ni*ties1.a. Intense ill will or hatred; great malice.b. An act or a feeling of great malice.2. The condition or quality of being highly dangerous or injurious; deadliness.It pays to understand why David S. Wellhauser (Author) has added Continuous Malignity into this first in the series sci-fi based Fortuna's Bastard (A Great and Continuous Malignity)While many will point to parts of the book they truly liked, I admired how David S. Wellhauser has woven a tale which leaves you engage at the end so when you start the next book in the series you'll know the characters as they have been developed so well in this the first of the series. Always a challenge to intertwine continuous malignity to the point you're looking forward to the next book in the series but David S. Wellhauser has successfully achieved this objective.It's easy for me to put myself in the main character Matt's shoes as I've experienced similar circumstances in my life and this makes for an engaging read from the start. The pace did slow at times but overall I found the plots twists and turns kept me coming back for more.
