The Republic of Cedar Key

The Republic of Cedar Key is the standalone final chapter in the award winning Cedar Key trilogy, described by Kirkus Reviews as, "A propulsive, character-driven post-apocalyptic ride... a brutal tale of survival with a refreshingly kaleidoscopic perspective. Independent Book Reviews calls it, "A touching end of the world story filled with hope and beauty."Twenty-five years have passed since the fall of man. During this time, the world has slid into a pre-industrial version of itself. On the tiny island of Cedar Key, a close-knit community leans on each other and lessons from their ancestors to survive in a world set against them. On a chilly February morning, a thousand man army arrives at the island's shore, claiming to represent the reconstituted American government. New mayor Luke Buck must decide whether to submit to the army's control or make a stand for self-determination and lead the resistance. A literary fiction exploration of Southern culture, survival, and the essential need for human beings to live in true community with one another.
