Synopsis

A darkly comic biblical satire about power, wealth, and the temptations of leadership. This edition lampoons how rulers bend law and faith to their own ends, with sharp, provocative storytelling.

Set in a mythic landscape, the book follows a king and his advisers as they trade in influence and privilege. Through parables, tall tales, and vivid imagery, it exposes the cunning, fear, and folly that accompany prosperity. The narrative blends ancient-sounding language with contemporary social critique, inviting readers to reflect on governance, integrity, and the costs of loyalty.



As the plot twists between council chambers, markets, and sacred spaces, the work unfolds like a parable for modern times. Its surreal humor and blunt moral questions challenge readers to consider who benefits from power—and who pays the price.




  • Encounter a cast of larger-than-life figures who embody greed, piety, envy, and ambition.

  • Explore themes of wealth, policy, and public trust through allegorical episodes.

  • Experience a satirical voice that mingles iconography with contemporary critique.



Ideal for fans of noirish satire, political allegory, and smart, thought-provoking humor in fiction.
