Synopsis

'My kind of book.' R.L. Stine, author of Goosebumps
Sent home from school early for troublemaking, 11-year-old Conn hangs out at UCD's National Folklore Collection while his Aunt Doireann finishes up her work.
When he spots a case marked 'hazardous', Conn just can't stop himself from lifting the lid … Inside lies the ancient skull of the Abhartach – an undead sorcerer of terrible might – and Conn has just set his spirit free.
Can he defeat the monstrous mind-controlling Abhartach before he regains his full power?
'Wise, funny, thrilling, and scary, Conn of the Dead is a wonderful new type of adventure. Dave Rudden is a storytelling genius.' Pádraig Kenny

    We live in a time of increasing conflict due to ignorance, lack of self-discipline and polarization. Just look at what happened in recent events at the White House! Other examples are the Covid Tanker blockade, destructive rioting in cities, hospitals coming under siege, and the Russia-Ukraine conflict.... all were and are avoidable. 
    Staple Society results from succeeding constructive and protective concepts meeting obligations which generally follow traditions aimed at accepted common responsibilities. 
    Rob Howat discusses and explores these social building blocks in these four books with facts and examples. He shows that for society and the law to work responsibilities must be fulfilled before meaningful rights can follow. He suggests the ongoing need for calm discussion, research and reviews, an aim for balance, and well-understood and universally agreed 'ground rules' for educational pursuits. 
    The best time to open calm discussions with a goal to start building change is now, using constructive philosophy, logic, and religious proven wisdom. This set of books will greatly simplify and assist in building that deeper informed debate.
