Purchase options and add-ons

Welcome to the land at the end of the road: Key West. A tropical island known for Margaritas, warm breezes, singing manatees, and surprises. One surprise awaits Taco Bob and a couple of friends just offshore. It s quite a grisly discovery, and they soon find themselves getting unwanted attention from some very bad people. People who are not about to let anyone stop them from taking over Key West. Taco Bob and his friends could use some help. But due to government cutbacks and corruption there won t be much help there. It starts to look like the fate of Key West may depend on a group of renegade enviromentalists led by "Shark" Hunter, a man who fears little... except, maybe, little voodoo dolls.

Robert Tacoma

Brief content visible, double tap to read full content.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Raised by skydivers, Robert Tacoma spent his formative years in central Florida public schools during the week and at various jump centers across the state on weekends. He also learned to fish the waters in and around the Sunshine State, so you could say he grew to appreciate Florida from the air and water as well as the land.

Though he has never been to Texas, Robert can usually find it on a map. He currently lives in north central Florida and all his pets have run away.

Key Manatee

Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2022

Another good tale featuring Taco Bob and friends and an unexpected surprise ending! Don't pass this one up. Good read!

Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2011

I like these light adventures - no message, no gore. Robert Tacoma knows his South Florida fiction, so you will find references to Hiassen's ex Gov. Skink or maybe a description of Doc Ford's hangout. These novels are not as dark as Randy Wayne White's work, nor as wild and crazy as that of Tim Dorsey, but they are in that league. Personally, I prefer the Key ones to those set in South Texas. Here is my attempt to list them chronologically, which is probably the best order to read the Key ones.

Robert Tacoma (various protagonists)
Key Weird. 2005. 4.0
Key Weirder 2005 4.3
Color Me Weird 2007 4.3 no, it really is a coloring book, with a story
Key Witch 2008 4.3
Key Lucky 2008 4.0
Possum Surprise 2009 3.3 S Texas small town, duller. Early MS dusted off?
Key Manatee 2010 4.0
Sheriff Skunk 2010 5.0 S Texas small town
Key Dali 2011 4.0 1st person Dali, Key West street artist, w usual cast

Slightly oddball, just like me. Fun.

This is the fourth in the series about Key West that I have read and I have loved them all.
The style of writing reminds me of the old detective stories from the 50s, only much funnier.
The characters are mostly oddballs and some even have redeaming qualities. I recommend any reader start with Key Weird and read them all in the order they were written. It's been a long time since I was back to Key West but now I know I have to go back again and rent a scooter to explore the whole island again.

Key Manatee,
Like all the taco Bob stories, a fun quick read. I wish Amazon would list any series in order so you could read them in a continuing manner.

If you like Hiaasen you will recognize this style

I light read that I find very reminiscent of Carl Hiaasen, you might even find a reference to "the governor". Silly, weird and unpredictable Taco Bob is always entertaining.

as a series, the books do not do well in connecting the various characters. However, still great fun --- Love Key West

What can I say!? Robert Tacoma is the MASTER of Key West intriqued. His writing skills for descriptive narrative on the wacky and mysterious side of Key West, the southern most point in the US is magnificent. The entire series of Key West novels are a must read! Long live Taco Bob!
