This is the end book in this Saga...and wow! It will have your heart beating fast! Love how things are changing and ending....and I need a Wolfhound!
You will find out what motivates some of the characters, and others the horrible abuse they have suffered. I don't know if I would not have gone mad, make sure you have a box of tissues available.
You see the Characters choosing God and forgiveness.
What a great enjoyable read, and really highly recommend this book!
I was provided with a copy of this book by the Publisher, and was not required to give a positive review.

I love these books, because they give me an idea of the life of my Irish ancestors.

However, the amount of biblical passages was too excessive. I understand, and respect, that religon played a significant role in peoples life back then, but the author has gotten himself too caught up in them. Please don't bash me for my opinion, I just felt this book had more passages than were needed. They took me out of the story.

With that said, I love the imagery, people, and story lines. Mostly because it talks of perserverance, harship, and love; without excessive violence and sex. It was simply the harsh truth that spanned the ocean from the "Great Famine" to the "American Dream".
