Sinopse

'The most important book of its generation' - Mark Cagney, Morning Ireland
'Jewel-like scenes of Dublin' - Sunday Times
'Roddy Doyle with Knobs on!' - RTE Guide
'Thompson's ability to, by his own admission, write for non-readers, make his books unputdownable' - Tara O'Liaith


Johnser Kiely was brought up the hard way, one of a large family in a glass-splattered playground in a Ballyfermot Estate. Johnser finds love and trouble in equal measure as his reckless impulses lead him down a dangerous path. While Jackie Clarke is drawn to his wild spirit, Johnser's knack for robbing and fighting could cost him everything - his freedom, family and his very life. Tensions build to a pivotal night when a gun is drawn and fates are forever altered in this gritty tale of star-crossed lovers from the wrong side of the tracks. The original Dublin novel of the classic love story about Hard Man Johnser Kiely and his long-suffering partner Jackie Clarke. This cult classic is now a Cannes-celebrated film by Gilles Lellouche 'L'Amour Ouf' (Beating Hearts).

    Never did I think a girl like Gretchen Hawthorne would be the woman of my dreams. 
     
     
     
    She is stubborn, irritating, and can piss me off at the drop of a hat. But she is also sweet and has a vulnerability about her that she doesn't allow many to see. She let me in for a split second, and what I found was even more than I had bargained for. Her façade is nothing more than a mask to hide her fears. 
     
     
     
    One wild night in the barn at my cousin's house, and I'm hooked. 
     
     
     
    She's intriguing. She's beautiful. But she also has it in her head that she and I will never work. Which is ridiculous, and I vow to prove her wrong. 
     
     
     
    I'm Colton Thomas, and I'm stubborn too, and I do not give up easily. She better hold on tight because I'm coming for her. And I plan to break down all those walls she's built so high around her.

    Johanna, Roald, Nellie and Loesie return undercover to the devastated city of Saardam. In the months since they fled, the Fire Wizard Alexandre has ruled the town with campaigns of death and fear, focused on the eradication of the Church of the Triune, the former state church of Saarland that doesn't allow magic and that is more popular with the common people than with nobles. 
    Johanna meets up with underground members of the church, even though her little gift of magic makes her feel ambivalent about it. She knows that ousting Alexandre will require a powerful magician, something she and her followers do not have. What is more, Alexandre's men discover the group, and the band of resistance fighters faces the showdown with the tyrant long before they're even close to ready for it.
