What If Monkeys Took Over the World?

By Don Smith

What If Monkeys Took Over the World? is a gripping, thought-provoking science fiction novel that imagines a world where humanity loses its dominion-and primates rise in its place.
When a controversial experiment designed to enhance ape intelligence spirals out of control, the world begins to change in unimaginable ways. Forests whisper with coordinated plans. Urban fringes flicker with strange movements. As governments underestimate the threat, cities fall not to brute force-but to strategy, unity, and evolution.
Follow Dr. Maya Lin, a primatologist caught between two species, as she witnesses the collapse of human order and the rise of a new civilization led by intelligent monkeys. Chimps establish towering city-states, capuchins master knowledge and data, and bonobos lead a spiritual and political movement for peace.
In this new world, survivors must choose: resist, serve, or adapt. As monkey society develops its own language, laws, technology, and even religion, ethical questions blur the lines between species, justice, and what it means to be truly civilized.
Spanning decades of conflict, diplomacy, and evolution, What If Monkeys Took Over the World? is an epic tale of rebellion, survival, and shared legacy. It challenges our assumptions about power, coexistence, and the cost of peace in a world reshaped by those we once called lesser beings.
