The reference to the black pig is really the only strange aspect to the story.Bill Selneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17268006369157307593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1644690488802388716.post-70561623284062516422019-03-24T12:05:53.603-06:002019-03-24T12:05:53.603-06:00I agree with you on the title and the cover, Bill,...I agree with you on the title and the cover, Bill, and I am always affected by a cover.

Still, the setting appeals to me a lot, and Murf sounds like a well-drwan character. And it's interesting to get at the roots of major sociopolitical events like the Troubles. I'm glad you found some things to like about this one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
