    Angry, prophetic, full of vitality and enormously funny [Praise for Kingdom of Fear] Guardian Absolutely brilliant ... Hunter S. Thompson has more fire and righteous outrage than most journalists half his age. Hard truths about America conveyed with tremendous wit [Praise for Kingdom of Fear] -- Eric Schlosser, Author Of Fast Food Nation The fear and loathing have never seemed more apt... he's still raging against the machine [Praise for Kingdom of Fear] Literary Review Fantastic... I don't think anyone else in print has called George Bush a whore beast [Praise for Kingdom of Fear] Newsnight Review
