LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwire - June 17, 2008) - King Midas World Entertainment has announced
the launch of Operation Tyrant, a captivating, exciting and innovative
branded media campaign that is unmatched in the publishing industry on

By introducing its trademark concepts through the release of the epic novel

opportunities across its publishing, casino, movie, entertainment and

"Synergy and continuity are key in a successful branded media campaign,"
says Fabrizio Boccardi, CEO of King Midas World Entertainment. "We've taken
those elements and created not just a singular experience, but an entire
corporate identity that reaches across all facets of our business interests
that clearly conveys who and what we are."
The branded media campaign combines traditional elements and specific
concepts of the brand including a gold medallion inscribed with an ancient
Latin motto, the novel's protagonist and daredevil magnate Michael Tiranno
and a time continuum spanning from ancient Rome to modern-day Las Vegas.
Targeting adults 25 to 54, the campaign begins in the Los Angeles area with
