An Irish Country Welcome: An Irish Country Novel by Patrick TaylorMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Happily there is a novella to close out the series. Had thought this was the absolute end. The novella is Yuletide so imagine it will tie up the tale once and for all, although this installment has pretty much set the paths the main characters will take once there is no more written chronical to keep us up to date. A marriage, a birth, a new partner, older folks slowing down and making room for the younger ones to take their places. Momentarily, the factional unrest of Northern Ireland has ceased, but as Taylor said, he did not want to take Ballybucklebo any closer to the Troubles. For that his readers are grateful. For ever after we can imagine our friends there continuing on in peace and love and cooperation. It is a happy ending all round.
