Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Godspeed Cedar Key isn't another end of the world book; it is a despite the end of the world book.Cedar Key is an island dangling off the western coast of Florida in the Gulf of Mexico. On a chilly February morning, the horizon across the bay is enveloped in a microsecond of piercing light, and in an instant the old world is gone forever. Fires burn on horizons around the planet but the heat eventually gives way to the creeping monotone of the skies. The gray sets in overhead and all around, determined to keep the sun away from the land and waters. In the new world, 300 islanders must learn to survive in the footprints of their forebears, battling invaders from the mainland, disease and natural disasters, and the compounding dread of hearing almost nothing from the wider world. This anti-dystopian novel is a quiet ode to the essential need for humans to live in true community with one another. Despite the loss of most technologies and modern comforts, the islanders persevere in the face of hardship and death-- burying their loved ones in the morning and planting spring vegetables in the afternoon. The deep friendship between the island's mayor and an eccentric clam farmer underpin a story spanning three centuries of Cedar Key history. The triumphs and failures of past generations echo into the new world, as the islanders learn to lean on each other and their shared history. The Gulf's rich bounty and destructive power are a thrilling setting for a life-affirming story where love and friendship push back against the darkness.…

Cedar Key Trilogy Book 3Kirkus - Literary Titan - Florida Writers Association Award-Winning SeriesTwenty-five years after the world ended, an army claiming to be from the American government just showed up at the bridge."The epic last chapter in a trilogy full of excitement, adventure, and heartbreak." - Kirkus Reviews"Bobbitt writes Cedar Key like someone who knows the smell of salt air, old docks, porch talk, and stubborn people who would rather fix a thing badly than let an outsider tell them how to live." - Literary Titan"In Michael Presley Bobbitt's third and final installment of the Cedar Key trilogy, The Republic of Cedar Key, he does exactly what he sets out to do-go out with a bang." - Independent Book ReviewsTHE STORYCedar Key has survived twenty-five years without the outside world. Now the outside world wants back in.The heroes of the early years - Hayes, Thomas, Rolf - are old men now. The island has rebuilt itself from memory and stubbornness. Then a Blackhawk helicopter drops out of the sky carrying soldiers who claim to represent what remains of the United States government.

Bobbitt just delivered the final word on it."Surreal FloridaABOUT THE AUTHORMichael Presley Bobbitt is an off-Broadway playwright, novelist, clam farmer, and Cedar Key's official Clambassador.
