Not my favorite, but still full of the fun McDonnell works into his novels. I did enjoy the time spent with Smithy and Diller, but not so much where they spent it. Wherever that was. ( ) An absolutely fabulous book. I love the story and the humour in just the right mix. This story features Smithy and Dilller who take on a crowd of unruly and very big men who are led by a lunatic and very rich megalomaniac in somewhere called Nowhere. The story starts with Smithy trying to get himself out of financial trouble by dressing up as a leprechaun for a bunch of obnoxious rich people. It develops as Smithy tries to take revenge on the main rich person called Louis Reed but of course it goes badly wrong and they end up in a great deal of trouble. A great story. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Onderdeel van de reeks(en)McGarry Stateside (Spinoff)
A little revenge never hurt anybody... When a gambling debt puts him between a rock and a swim in the Hudson with concrete shoes, Smithy has no choice but to take the worst job imaginable. The gig - as prey in leprechaun hunt for a bunch of Wallstreet jerks - goes as badly as it sounds. He could leave it there and write it off as a harsh lesson learned, but fourteen months later when Smithy comes up with a plan to take his revenge on the man behind it all, it is too good to resist. What is it they say about best-laid plans? Instead of teaching his nemesis, Louis, a valuable lesson, Smithy ends up saving him from an assassin. From there, Smith and his friend Diller are dragged into his opponent's messed-up world. Louis is part of 'the Collectors' a group with way more money than sense dedicated to the competitive acquisition of truly one-of-a-kind items that define the secret history of the world. When one of the group's members loses his marbles, Smithy and Diller find themselves shanghaied to Nowhere. A well-named location in the middle of the desert, where a madman is trying to build an army from the worst of mankind. Welcome to Nowhere is a wild ride from the author renowned for the darkly comic thrills of The Dublin Trilogy series and the McGarry Stateside books. It is a standalone novel that is a perfect introduction to McDonnell's blend of comedy and compelling story that is earning him a growing legion of loyal fans.
