About this listen

"The charm of Taylor's Irish Country tales is brought to life in John Keating's performance. His Irish lilt will transport listeners straight to Ballybucklebo...Keating's pacing and inflections are perfect as he gives a unique vocal personality to each character." — AudioFile Magazine on An Irish Country Love Story

An Irish Country Practice is the twelfth heartwarming installment in New York Times and Globe and Mail bestselling author Patrick Taylor's beloved Irish Country series.

Once, not too long ago, there was just a single Irish country doctor tending to the lively little village of Ballybucklebo: Doctor Fingal Flahertie O’Reilly. Now his thriving practice is growing by leaps and bounds.

Not only has O’Reilly taken a new trainee under his wing, Doctor Connor Nelson, he’s also added a spirited Labrador puppy to his ever-expanding household at Number One Main Street. Meanwhile, his trusted partner, young Doctor Barry Laverty, finds himself wondering if he’s truly ready to settle down and start a family with his lovely fiancée, Sue.

As the doctors cope with domestic and professional challenges, they also look after their patients and their ailments, including a mysterious cough, a housewife whose frequent “accidents” may have a disturbing cause, and a respected colleague who might be succumbing to an old vice.

All is not sickness and worry, however. There’s plenty of joy and merriment to be found as well, from a visiting circus to racing to sailing . . . and maybe even a happy ending or two.

This touching audiobook is as warm and cozy as the lovable town in which it takes place.

I love this series and regularly look for the newest release. I love the way different narratives interweave and how, even in the midst of some sadness, the positive side of human nature and heart shines through. The narration is outstanding.

Love This Series

I love this book series but I found this one very boring. It’s much better when there is a bigger problem than Fingle has to figure out. And I’d like to here more about poor Lars. I’m hoping the next one will be better.

Not his best

When I managed to finish a difficult book for me, I make it a rule to pick up a story of Dr. Fingal Flahertie O'Reilly and his loving friends in Ballybucklebo. As always, heart-warming, funny, lovable people make me relax and chuckle, which is greatly owed to the superb narrator.

This series series is an auditory and cognitive hot chocolate for a cold day. The narration is the whipped cream.

encreaaingly endearing and engaging

I think this is the final book in the series and all of the storylines are neatly tied up. But I would definitely listen to more of the lives of the lovable characters in this friendly village in Ireland.

Wonderful story with colorful characters!

This story is pure pleasure, gentle and funny and sometimes sad, but always kind at heart. The reading of it is delightful with the Irish brogue.
