In case you’re not aware, King of the Jungle is Hayride publisher Scott McKay’s new hilariously satirical novel. It’s about a combative billionaire entrepreneur who, fed up with the corruption and stupidity of American politicians he’s spent the past few years fighting against, decides to build a Shangri-La for himself and his people in the jungles of Guyana – only to find himself on the front lines of a fight against even worse corruption and stupidity at the hands of an invading Venezuelan communist regime.

People who’ve read King of the Jungle absolutely love it. Some reviews…
“We all know Scott McKay is an astute political observer with uncanny predictive foresight. We know this because we’ve read his books the Revivalist Manifesto and the saga of Barack Obama: Racism, Revenge and Ruin. But it’s been a welcome surprise to see that Scott may be an even better fiction writer. If you like the Jack Ryan series, you’ll love King of the Jungle. It mixes American political intrigue with danger and foreign wars — one that is scarily possible. You’ll recognize personalities and political figures in this page turner. It’s the perfect beach read or airport book. Read it on your next flight or read it at home and alternately laugh and be alarmed at the implications for an all-too-real future in the jungles of Guyana.”
– Melissa Mackenzie, publisher, The American Spectator
“A rollicking ride that looks ripped from the headlines with plenty of corrupt politicians, danger and firepower. And, unlike real life, there’s a happy ending.”
– Daniel Greenfield, Shillman Journalism Fellow, Domestic Enemies: The Founding Fathers’ Fight Against the Left
Scott McKay does a masterful job of having the reader experience an all too possible scenario, based on current events populated with “fictional” characters whose actual identities are well-known. As with his “Tales of Ardenia” series, principled, honorable people triumph over the corrupt and unscrupulous; all seen through the eyes of a main character whom the reader easily identifies with. If events do not turn out as they do in McKay’s books, they should!
Reading his stories – where the righteous overcome evil – offers the reader not only an excellent adventure but provides hope that the problems our nation faces will in fact, turn out for the best eventually. Whether that’s true or not, his books are fun, tell a great story, and provide a most-satisfying degree of hope for the future of our country.
A great adventure, a main character that immerses the reader, and hope for the future for a world currently in turmoil. What’s not to like?
This book was hard to put down and fun to read. The characters are based on people in the news and it’s hard to tell sometimes which ones are more fictionalized than others.
This book was a hoot. The author mixed the personalities of current political figures with a fictional, though not implausable, invasion of a South American country. The plot twists and turns as those characters act just as they do in real life, instead in a high adventure story. Very clever.
A gripping tale of politics, media, and power. The protagonist navigates a world of corporate manipulation and governmental corruption, thrust into a partnership with his billionaire college roommate. Their journey leads to Liberty Point, a hidden utopia in the Guyanese jungle, threatened by the corrupt regime in neighboring Venezuela. Holman’s narrative offers a thrilling exploration of contemporary politics, making it a must-read for those seeking a thought-provoking page-turner.
King of the Jungle completely blew me away! The story of Pierce Polk’s sanctuary in Guyana is captivating and has many unexpected twists. The author did a fantastic job exposing society’s flaws while entertaining you. It’s like you can run but can’t hide, in Polk’s case. I highly recommend this thrilling read!
