review 1: I saw this a month or so ago, available only as an e-book on the Nook. Since I truly enjoy this series, I went ahead and got it. The author describes it as a "long short story."It's actually the tale of Dr. Fingal Flahertie O'Reilly's return to Ballybucklebo after his stint in the Navy during World War II. He has managed to purchase the practice of his mentor, and is anxious to start his medical career, in charge of his own practice. It's very enjoyable, with Kinky Kincaid already being in place as the housekeeper, and it offers the chance to see the very beginnings of O'Reilly's relationships with the people in the town.This was fun, and a good "fix" for me until I get to read the next book.
review 2: "Home is the Sailor" by Patrick Taylor is a short story ... moregiving fans of "The Irish Country Doctor"series a glimpse of Dr. O'Reilly's return to the village of Ballybucklebo, following the war. it is a nice little enticement tiding us over until the next full length novel of the series is published (or hopefully another book in the series will be written). This is an ebook readable in a short time. less
