About the Book

In the midst of rebellion are legends wrought, and Mogue Trench knows of a tale never told. What better time to relay it than as the rope awaits. The Highwayman Joseph Mac Tire knows of hardship - at the hands of Redcoats and Republicans alike - so Ireland's political struggle has less appeal than mentoring an orphan in the ways of the underworld. Yet the world has a way of catching up to men whose hearts know only darkness - men who hunt, and kill, and howl in rage. But sooner or later, they howl no more. In "A Land Without Wolves", his debut novel, Daniel's writing is poetry in motion, historical and socio-political introspection at play with adventure within and speculation on a somewhat esoteric (and often misrepresented) spatial and temporal landscape. This tale of a highwayman refusing to bend to the will of partisan political action and questioning the motivations of the players involved is perhaps relevant in many contemporary contexts. Amidst the unfolding tale are many points of reflection worth taking on board.

About the Author :
Daniel Wade is a poet, playwright, novelist and scriptwriter from Dublin, Ireland. In January 2017, his play The Collector opened the 20th anniversary season of the New Theatre, Dublin. His spoken-word album Embers and Earth launched the previous October at the National Concert Hall. A prolific performer, Daniel has featured at many festivals including Electric Picnic, Body and Soul, and the 2019 International Literature Festival (ILFD). In January 2020, his radio drama Crossing the Red Line was broadcast on RTE Radio 1 Extra, and later won a silver award at the New York Festivals Radio Awards for Best Digital Drama.

Review :
""A Land Without Wolves" has me reminiscing of the classics because Daniel Wade's novel belongs on the shelves among them! [...] Daniel's writing is so superb, I saw everything unfold in glorious rhythms. I could see old maps in my mind as we weaved through various escapades. I'd like to think this story had to be written by candlelight with a quill pen, because the essence of the times is captured so flawlessly." - Annie McDonnell "[...] vividly and poetically evokes the strange and contradictory world of late 18th-century Ireland...delving into a criminal underworld of thievery, brothels and secret societies alongside philosophical and political musings...highly attuned to its historical context and its understanding of what was possible, 'thinkable', at the time." - Claire Henessy "The window into this slice of violent Irish history was such that I was encouraged to seek out and look up the real historical locations and historical figures which, I discovered afterward, were well researched and accurate. Dark, thought-provoking, and immersive A Land Without Wolves was a thoroughly enjoyable (if not sometimes bloodstained) read." - Gary J. Martin
