The Friars Curse: A Legend Of Inishowen; Or Dreams Of Fancy When The Night Was Dark is a novel written by Michael Quigley. The book is set in Inishowen, a peninsula in the north of Ireland, and revolves around a curse that was placed on the friars who lived in the area during the 16th century. The curse is said to have caused a series of tragic events that have haunted the region ever since.The story follows the lives of several characters, including a young boy named Sean who is fascinated by the legend of the friars curse. As Sean delves deeper into the history of the curse, he uncovers a web of secrets and lies that have been buried for centuries. Along the way, he meets a cast of colorful characters, including a wise old storyteller, a mysterious stranger, and a beautiful young woman who captures his heart.As the novel unfolds, the reader is taken on a journey through the rugged landscape of Inishowen, where myths and legends are as real as the people who live there. The Friars Curse is a tale of love, loss, and redemption, and a tribute to the enduring power of storytelling in Irish culture. Quigley’s vivid descriptions of the landscape and the people who inhabit it bring the story to life, immersing the reader in a world of magic and wonder.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
