The first book in this epic series
The Badgers Will Dance is the engrossing and moving story of Milo and his eye-blinkingly quick tempered friend Charley who would fight at the drop of a hat…of the good looking and peace loving Con who wouldn’t say boo to a goose…of the enchanting and tantalizing Maria who awakens him to rapturous joy, sorrow and pain…of the bullied and downtrodden little Tim as they plot to protect him from his drunken and heartless father… and of many more colouful and shady characters as they go to school, learn to grow up and survive on the tough corporation housing estate known as ‘The Reservation’ in 1950’s Ireland.
It is a story of love and unconditional friendship…a story of corruption, physical and sexual abuse, bullying, deceit, betrayal, and revenge that leads to a long and painful fall from grace…a story of family breakdown and the reality of heartbreaking and feared emigration.
It is a story of hopeful reconciliation with friends and family as Milo, having fallen so far, desperately struggles to fight and claw his way out of the dark and doom afflicted dungeon he finds himself in and from which ways of escape are few.
