review 1: Don't ask an Irishman anything and expect him to get straight to the point - it won't ever happen - but then, if it did you'd miss the joy in the journey and Ben MacCarthy's life was quite a journey and one to be enjoyed. 'The Last Storyteller' brings the tale of Ben's life to a satisfying conclusion (take the time to read it for yourself to find out what happens and enjoy the journey) with a touch of whimsy and magic - a very fitting end to a grand tale. Frank Delaney has indeed mastered the art of storytelling with all of his little detours and sidebars that add richness to the stories.
review 2: This is a third book in a trilogy; not having read the previous two books, it took a bit of perseverance to embrace the story as there are many subplots and charac... moreters. However, it was worth the work as it proved to be a good story set in 20th century Ireland. a few pithy quotes..."I believe that if you trust it, that life will give you what you want..." or "No matter how bad things are the universe has a way of healing." and "I need to change myself in order to heal myself." less
