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 a leprechaun hunt for a bunch of Wall Street jerks - goes as badly as it sounds. He could leave it there and write it off as a harsh lesson learned, but 14 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 stand-alone 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.

I mostly wanted to mention that McDonnell writes here a bit about chronic pain and an eventual heroin addiction. As one who also struggles with chronic pain, I can vouch for the truth of his commentary - trying to live with opioids isn't easy, and I certainly understand why some folks find themselves on that path. I'm grateful that I've been able to avoid it and go off them, but it's a struggle. McDonnell recognizes that, and sees the quiet strength of those forced to live with genuinely difficult choices. I deeply appreciate his observations, and was very touched by the innate kindness in his writing.
In fact, I'm constantly impressed with McDonnell's gentleness and his genuine care for people on life's downside. I know he give a lot to help the homeless, and he writes as someone who's been there, or at least has been a close observer. He has a very deft hand as an author - his protagonists are flawed, but always striving, always possessing a certain dignity, always eminently lovable. And so alive that I believe I'd be able to walk into the Porterhouse in NYC, where I'd find Bunny devouring a full Irish breakfast, Smithy and Diller sitting by sipping a whiskey and a lemonade.
So McDonnell is very, very funny, but more than that, he's kind. There are few writers I'd really like to meet - I think it's wise to be very cautious about meeting one's heroes - but I'd love to buy McDonnell a pint someday. I don't think he'd embrace, or even accept, the role of hero, and that's one of the things that makes him a fine writer. He's a man with a rare skill - the ability to make his readers both laugh out loud and sniffle a bit, often within a few pages. He is more a creator of heroes, elevating his characters to quiet feats of generosity and kindness. A truly fine writer. Read all his work, you won't be disappointed.
I also think Morgan Jones does a very good job of narrating, in all of the Bunnyverse books. I nicked him a star here because I really loved his voice choice for Smithy in "I Have Sinned," and I'm sad that he went in a different direction here. It's just a personal preference, but that's what review are for. There's nothing here to disappoint listeners, and a great deal to delight.
Another Great and Funny Novel!
