The Cursing Stone
“Historical Fiction at its best. This story is a delight.”
– JJ Toner, author of The Black Orchestra
“The various strands in the story link so naturally with each other, the different story-lines each building its own momentum as they move towards the shipwreck and all mesh into place. Nothing in the story is unnecessary, but there is a fund of just the right detail to bring everything to life and make the characters and their fortunes so deeply interesting. Gubby, Ruairi, the various crew-members on the Wasp, the lighthouse cast, the map-school and of course the island community – all are painted in with such light brush-stokes and yet there is a sense of each having a full life-history.”
– Rosalind Duke, Lecturer (Retired), Development and Inter-Cultural Education, DCU
