Patrick's Gift is a magical, wondrous story of
Patrick, a young boy growing up in Derry, in Northern
Ireland. Bullied at school, he is befriended by an old
lady who instructs him to visit the ancient fairy circle
of stones on a nearby hilltop.
Facing vicious crows, murderous rabbits and hares, Patrick
meets the Luricans--leprechauns or "wee folk" and his
adventure begin as he gets his gift, not knowing
just how important it is to his very life as he
does battle with monsters!
"The monster was at least as tall and as wide as a house.
The grotesque, many-legged thing roared louder. Its wide
hair-covered mouth with its row-upon-row of pointed teeth
bubbled with black saliva."
A modern fairy-tale, Patrick?s Gift is the work
of Derry author Jack Scoltock, with original cover art by
Donegal artist, John Quigley, of Carrowmenagh.
