Simon Lazarus was born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio where he paved roads and worked on construction with his friend, Bill Pulski. Bill Pulski's wife was headed to the Olympics. This would prove to be very unfortunate.
Officer Olan Oliveria was focused on providing security for the Olympics and intercepting jewel thieves. It might have been quite successful if it hadn't been for the bats.
Ivana Carvalho, the youngest Minister of Health in the history of Brazil, was counting down the days until the tourists of the Olympic Games returned home and she could focus on the emerging bat problem. As it turns out, this was a rather reckless misjudgment.
General Hunter Wallace Wertheim the Third had two objectives - protect the visiting President of the United States at the Olympic Games and control the outbreak of a mysterious bat-borne illness. He would do neither, despite being quite capable and not at all spineless.
Narrated by the Writer, we follow the story of seemingly innocuous people and the events that lead to the end of the world. The apocalypse has never felt so real as we enter the world of bats, sickness, and the last man in Cleveland.
A thrilling and poignant novella from up and coming author Danny O'Dea, The Last Man In Cleveland will keep you reading until the very last sentence. This refreshing addition to apocalyptic fiction is filled with vibrant and relatable characters as we explore the intricacies of the human race and the quiet devastation of loss and grief.
I was so taken by this novella from new author Danny O'Dea and his complex look at grief and loss - the quiet apocalypse when we lose a loved one. O'Dea writes in such a way that even the hardest of topics are easily addressed and understood. His writing style is reminiscent of Lemony Snicket, offering a touch of nostalgia from my youth. This charming and deceptively intriguing novella is the kind of thing I will read over and over. It's an easy read with vibrant characters written by an author who clearly has a passion for what he is creating. For a debut work, this is refreshingly creative and I look forward to O'Dea's future work. - Ravven White author of I Am Ravven and The Cry of The Ravven
The Last Man in Cleveland by Danny O'Dea will leave readers entranced by the various stories he weaves with a diverse range of characters. Each character drives the narrative into a gripping and terrifying apocalyptic work of fiction. Readers, prepare for a wild ride in which Earth's civilization is collapsing and terror seeps into the fate of humanity. This is a tale that will leave readers in deep thought, reflection, and awe. - David Grinnell author of Ashes

This refreshing addition to apocalyptic fiction is filled with vibrant and relatable characters as we explore the intricacies of the human race and the quiet devastation of loss and grief.'I've never read a book quite like this one. First of all, The Last Man in Cleveland is the fastest I have ever read a book. The writing itself is beautiful and thoughtful which makes for an approachable and interesting adventure. In today's world, higher consciousness is a sought after state, this book has a higher consciousness. The ending left me with feelings similar to the end of inception where your mind is racing and you know there's a deeper message to the book, one deserving of the time to be explored. Finally, the book is hilarious. Danny O'Dea is able to somehow simultaneously makes me question my own existence while laughing out loud.' - Alex Strathdee, founder of PODPR and ADVANCED AMAZON ADVERTISINGFiction, contrary to popular belief, can convey truth.reminiscent of Daniel W. Drezner's Theories of International Politics and Zombies, Ken Follet's Pillars of the Earth series, and Elizabeth Kübler-Ross, O'Dea explores the different ways trauma can manifest from a singular event as he follows six individuals in their journeys surviving an unstoppable global pandemic. Reading this helped me process the chaos of our time, contextualize my feelings, and better sympathize with peoples' reactions to COVID-19 worldwide. To those interested in better understanding how trauma can affect you, and how COVID-19 will affect the world, I recommend this captivating novella.' - Matthew S. Lynch, MA Museology'It's rare in a post-apocalyptic book to not have its world-ending events as a simple backdrop or conclusion, but a central and explorable part of it. It's even rarer when events in the book mirror present circumstances. Daniel O'Dea's The Last Man In Cleveland includes both of these.Through religious sociological ideas, O'Dea explores collective trauma as well as our present morals while offering hope in the possibility of averting catastrophe. We recommend you add this to your Spring 2022 reading list.' - The Dons Group. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9798985594034
