 Welcome to the moe.Republic
Hotel
- — where
the lives and the legends from the Lost Kingdom of Moose Harbor,
Maine, spring to life!
-
- Like Casey
McNugent, who bets the farm selling elephant semen for profit
— Porter Gibson Digit, who changed history the day he 'invented'
the finger — and brother Kevin and Sparky, who mysteriously
disappear into the cosmos!
-
- The characters,
their stories, are chronicled by 'brother John' in letters to
his brother Rob, the bass player for the real-life rock band
moe., who reluctantly backs the hotel.
-
- From a haunted
mansion, to Timmy Tucker's meteor bash, to a cursed pirate treasure,
John's misadventures and comic tales — the magic of Moose
Harbor — will leave you laughing and wondering how long
until all paths lead to the moe.Republic.
-
- Tales
from the moe.Republic is part folktale, part comic travelogue, and a
hundred percent old Yankee humor.
- Available Everywhere!
- at Border's
Bookstores, Amazon, here, or through your local bookseller.
- What they're saying about
- Tales from the moe.Republic
-
- "Good
old-fashioned storytelling... Derhak leads the reader from one
misbegotten historical-tinged fable to another with the breathless
abandon of a writer hitting all the notes." ~Randy
Ray, Jambands.com
-
- "Mr.
Derhak’s writing style, humorous and endearing, brings the
characters to life, like old friends you’ve known before."
Boston Herald
-
- "Stephen
King meets Prairie Home Companion meets John Steinbeck...
What can I say? It's that good!" ~Jackson Grant, Downeast Way Times
-
- "...indespensible!
Part folktale, part comic travelogue, a hundred percent old Yankee
humor... A must read for every throne room in
the moe.nation...!" ~Rob Derhak, moe. bassist & critic
at large (or should it be large critic?).
