This early work by Richard Harding Davis was originally published in 1898 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'The King's Jackal' is a work of fiction by this famous war correspondent. Davis attended Lehigh University and Johns Hopkins University, but was asked to leave both due to neglecting his studies in favour socialising. During the Second Boer War in South Africa, Davis was a leading correspondent of the conflict. He saw the war first-hand from both parties perspectives and documented it in his publication 'With Both Armies' (1900). He wrote widely from locations such as the Caribbean, Central America, and even from the perspective of the Japanese forces during the Russo-Japanese War. Davis died following a heart attack on 11th April, 1916, at the age of 51.

This is a really exciting read. It will leave you breathless. The locale of the story is exotic and thrilling, and Davis makes you feel as if you're really there. This story is brilliant, and I just loved all the twists and turns. Plots, coups, wars, and revolutions - this book has everything, including diabolical villains who will make your hair stand on end. The Baron and the King are just deliciously written. They're the kind of bad guys you love to hate.Richard Harding Davis was not only an excellent novelist but also one of the best reporters of all time. He clearly drew from the immense experience he'd gained from traveling the globe and being at the center of history and politics when he wrote his outstanding novels. As a war correspondent he had seen his share of action and adventure, so when he penned his works in the action/adventure genre, he was truly following the adage, "write what you know." His fictional works are so realistic, because he did not have to research the situations he wrote about; he lived them.
This book will take you on a thrilling ride that you won't forget. His wonderfully descriptive prose makes you feel like you're actually there, and his characters are so lifelike you feel like they could stroll into the room at any moment.
You will be shocked, horrified, and scandalized, not only by these tales, but by how convincingly realistic they are. I strongly recommend this book and all of Richard Harding Davis' other works. He is the master of this genre.

The King Jackal edition by Richard Harding Davis Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
The Sultan of Morocco had given orders that the ex-King of Messina, in spite of his incognito, should be treated during his stay in Tangier with the consideration due to his rank, so one-half of the Hotel Grand Bretagne had been set aside for him and his suite...he wants his power back....plots, coups, wars, revolutions...all at a time when men were men and there still was adventure!
Davis is brilliant! I have read some of his other books, and I'm very impressed by the range he shows in his works. He wrote a romantic war story that made me cry when I read it, and here he has written a thrilling and terrifying adventure that had me biting my nails. This is an excellently written story that you won't be able to stop thinking about long after you've read the last page. It's as brilliant as it is chilling.
One thing that really impressed me is the amazing handle that Davis had for plots hatched in the back rooms of power. This book leaves you wondering what sort of plots the powerbrokers are planning in some back room today. I find the thought both interesting and chilling, and Davis gives us a very realistic account of such things.
One thing I really love about his works is that his prose is wonderful. His writing just flows across the page, and reading it is a very enjoyable experience. I can't recommend this book enough. The plot is excellent and the style is great.
