How interesting! My parents were born and raised just outside Galway city l had28 aunts and uncles so it will be fun reading for me. Thanks!
I just discovered the Jack Taylor television series on Netflix..watched all six episodes (all that was available) in one sitting. Best TV I have seen in a long time! Now I want to read all the Jack Taylor books! Usually I do it the other around, but I didn’t know the author Ken Bruen till now. Want to read EVERYTHING he has written!! I can’t tell you how great it is to find a new author (new to me)!!! Heading to the bookstore tomorrow!!
The Jack Taylor books are tremendous! I read them in a day and a half sometimes – intriguing, surprising endings, especially The Guards. Awesome! I am anticipating reading my fourth in the Jack Taylor series – The Dramatist. Love you, Ken Bruen!
