Already called “required reading” — and sparking conversation worldwide.
If it feels familiar, it’s because it is.
The internal narrative of a man who rewrote the rules while the world was too distracted to notice.
This might be fiction. Or it might be the record they didn’t want anyone to see.
It’s a psychological blueprint: how he rose, how people followed, and how democracy unraveled in plain sight.
No weapons. No violence. Just carefully crafted rhetoric.
If this feels familiar, it’s because it is.

I saw the cracks before anyone else did.
All I had to do was widen them.

I learned early on: the trick isn’t making them believe in you.
It’s making them afraid of what happens if they don’t.

How I Almost Ruled the World is a political thriller with a psychological twist — a haunting, eerily timely descent into the mind of a man who nearly took everything.
He didn't need weapons. Just belief.
One man’s rise to power shows how truth gets rewritten, loyalty becomes worship, and democracy collapses — first slowly, then all at once.
At first, the crowds cheered. Then, they followed. Then, they stopped asking questions.
Told from the perspective of a leader who manipulated reality itself, this novel peels back the layers of power, control, and mass persuasion — and the terrifying realization of what happens when no one says “no.”
It began as fiction... Then the lines blurred.
And hoped no one would ever see.
“From the get-go, this book has you hooked and makes you think, ‘What the actual?’ I have not read a book that provokes such a revelation about what is real for a long time.”— Michael J Nesbitt, Verified Amazon Reviewer
“It’s not just about power—it’s about how easily we give it away, one compromise, one silence, one headline at a time... This isn’t just a story. It’s a mirror. And maybe a manual for how not to lose ourselves.”
— Alexander777 Verified Amazon Reviewer
“This book gave me something: Hope. Yes, it’s tense and disturbing, but it also reminded that awareness is poor. I think anyone who reads this will come away changed. I know I did.”
— Wendy M, Verified Amazon Reviewer
“This is an absolute must read. A golden nugget, captivating and more than just fiction. I was just looking to read a couple of pages before going to sleep and I could not put it down.” — Kindle Customer, Verified Amazon Reviewer
“ It’s rare to find a novel that feels this relevant without being preachy or partisan. It’s not about sides — it’s about silence, power, and how easy it is to lose everything without even realizing it. An absolute must-read. ” — Mark, Verified Amazon Reviewer
“The tension kept building, and just when I thought I knew what to expect, the twist at the end hit me out of nowhere. It made the whole book even more powerful.”
— Amazon Customer, Verified Amazon Reviewer
“Some books entertain. Some educate. This one does both — and then some. I genuinely think this book will be talked about for a long time. If you’re even thinking about reading it, just do it.”— Kristina, Verified Amazon Reviewer
“All I can say is and all I want to say is that this book DESERVES to be widely known and to be in the hands of readers across the globe.”— Sean Michael Uy, Verified Amazon Reviewer
“No book in recent memory has made my hairs stand on end and my mind race like this one. This book can—and will—sway the hearts of those who pick it up.”— Denzel Banks, Verified Amazon Reviewer
As a child, I always wondered why leaders didn't just do whatever they wanted. When I asked, I was told, 'Because that's how it's always been.' I insisted that one day, someone would rise up and break every rule-and when they did, hell would break loose. My family laughed and called it an overactive imagination.
Who's laughing now?
