ballykissangle;the arrival

a warm and wonderful book for all ballykissangle fans. I love to read this book when the show is not the air. I recommend the second volume; a sense of place as well. I only wish they would write another volume!

Totally delightful!

Based on the series with the same name, Ballykissangel is a wonderfully delightful book. The characters are comical but real, interesting and so very likeable. I look forward to each coming installment although, unfortunately, I do know how the story ends. I would encourage anyone who does not know the whole storyline to purchase each subsequent edition of the book- the ending is absolutely shocking! I cried for hours! It would be good if more stories like Ballykissangel were written - stories with real characters that you learn to love.

A brilliantly written novel to compliment Ballykissangel.

I thoroughly enjoyed both books

An excellent read.

This book was an excellent read, full of bright, crisp characters who are very human. I enjoyed every word of the story and am looking forward to the upcoming sequel.

Does an excellent job of capturing the spirit of the series.

Ballykissangel: The New Arrival is a wonderful book that tells the story of Father Peter Clifford's arrival in the small Irish village of Ballykissangel. This book tells the story of the first season of the renowned television series. The book does an excellent job of capturing the spirit of the series as well as further developing the characters to paint the picture of a close knit community made up of interesting and intriguing characters. You will fall in love with the town and it's community. This book is a quick and easy read. It is definately hard to put down. A great story.
