Irish Wine; The Trilogy is the original group of short comic novels that first introduced Dick Wimmer's beloved cast of characters' the same characters who most recently reappeared in The Wildly Irish Sextet. In these novels' which span ten years and two continents' readers are introduced to Seamus Boyne' the greatest painter since Picasso; his old friend' erstwhile writer and practicing pest - control specialist Gene Hagar; his beautiful Dutch wife - and Hagar's lost love - Ciara; and his estranged' rebellious teenage daughter' Tory. From the first pages' in which an overwrought Boyne's suicide attempt is rudely interrupted by an attempted assassination' readers are in for a wild ride. A staged death' an unexpected father - daughter reunion' a madcap adventure of kidnapping and mistaken identity' and bizarre love triangles are some of the hijinks and tomfoolery to be found in Irish Wine' Boyne's Lassie' and Hagar's Dream - now back in print to the delight of Seamus Boyne devotees across the land.

Finalist for the National Book Award, The Yellow Birds is the harrowing story of two young soldiers trying to stay alive in Iraq. "The war tried to kill us in the spring." So begins this powerful account of friendship and loss. In Al Tafar, Iraq, twenty-one-year old Private Bartle and eighteen-year-old Private Murphy cling to life as their platoon launches a bloody battle for the city. Bound together since basic training when Bartle makes a promise to bring Murphy safely home, the two have been dropped into a war neither is prepared for. In the endless days that follow, the two young soldiers do everything to protect each other from the forces that press in on every side: the insurgents, physical fatigue, and the mental stress that comes from constant danger. As reality begins to blur into a hazy nightmare, Murphy becomes increasingly unmoored from the world around him and Bartle takes actions he could never have imagined. With profound emotional insight, especially into the effects of a hidden war on mothers and families at home, The Yellow Birds is a groundbreaking novel that is destined to become a classic.
