What if the world's descent into madness wasn't a mistake... but the plan?

In Tropic of Chaos, no institution is safe and no sacred cow goes unbarbecued. With razor-edged satire and gut-punch honesty, debut author A.E. Holmes dares to pull the trigger on media manipulation, ideological absurdity, and the cultural brainwashing that's hijacked public discourse. Through a cast of grotesquely hilarious figures -- from vapid media pundits to power-hungry politicians -- and moments of blistering clarity, this dark comedy explodes with unfiltered truth wrapped in gallows humor.

From viral insanity to corporate cultism, gender dogma to cancel crusades, Tropic of Chaos dissects the spirit of the age with the scalpel of a heretic and the voice of a man with nothing left to lose. Equal parts dystopian circus and philosophical roast, this is a book for anyone who suspects the clown show isn't just the warm-up act-it's the whole damn system.
