Publisher's summary

An Irish Country Wedding is another heart-warming addition to New York Times bestselling author Patrick Taylor's Irish Country series.

Love is in the air in the colourful Ulster village of Ballybucklebo, where Dr. Fingal Flahertie O'Reilly has finally proposed to the darling of his youth, Kitty O'Hallorhan. There's a wedding to be planned, but before O'Reilly can make it to the altar, he and his young colleague, Barry Laverty, M.B., must deal with the usual round of eccentric patients—and crises both large and small.

Being a G.P. in a place like Ballybucklebo often means more than simply splinting broken bones and tending to aches and pains. It can also mean helping a struggling young couple acquire their first home, clearing the name of a cat accused of preying on a neighbor's prize pigeons, and encouraging a bright working-class girl who dreams of someday becoming a doctor herself. And, if you're Barry Laverty, still smarting from a painful breakup, there might even be a chance for a new romance with a lovely school teacher, if her passionate political convictions don't get in the way.

Much has changed in Ballybucklebo, and bigger changes are in store, but the lives and practices of these Irish country doctors remain as captivating and irresistible as ever.

A Walk in the Irish Countryside

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I enjoy the quiet peacefulness of the village in these stories! The characters are interesting and engaging. The plot is often predictable, but there is something comforting about that also. I have read the entire series and enjoyed it! I hope there are still more to come!

What did you like best about this story?

Characters!

What does John Keating bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Tis over so it is so!

This is the final chapter (for now) of Ballybucklebo and Dr. O'Reilly and Dr. Laverty. if you're a fan of Patrick Taylor's characters in Ballybucklebo, this book won't disappoint and will leave you smiling as the two doctors once again foil the plans of Birtie Bishop.

Another Delightful Time in Ballybuckleboo!

John Keating is my favorite narrator of my favorite author's series. Currently I am recuperating from knee replacement surgery and 3 of Keating 's narrations have been better than my meds! Can't wait to start the next book! :0)

More doctor-patient please

Although I LOVE this series, this one did not quite hit the mark for me. The personal stories about the principal characters are fine, but this story lacked those wonderful tales of the villagers and their ills. I like the doctor-patient tales.
