Fenian’s Trace

The audiobook version of Sean P. Mahoney’s FENIAN’S TRACE is narrated by Liam Carney, an ideal choice for the republican publican narrator who provides listeners with a painful summary of Ireland’s early 20th century history amidst the principal narrative following two young boys. Carney brings this historical novel to life with his accent and energy which fits the colorful language and dialect of the text and the time, delivered at a speed and intonation that draws its listener enticingly along. The descriptions of characters, life and action are meticulously detailed as are the periods of history recounted by the narrator, without pretension and highly polished by its Irish peculiarity and wit.
