About this listen
A little revenge never hurt anybody....
When a gambling debt puts him between a rock and a swim in the Hudson with concrete shoes, Smithy has no choice but to take the worst job imaginable. The gig - as prey in a leprechaun hunt for a bunch of Wall Street jerks - goes as badly as it sounds. He could leave it there and write it off as a harsh lesson learned, but 14 months later when Smithy comes up with a plan to take his revenge on the man behind it all, it is too good to resist.
What is it they say about best-laid plans? Instead of teaching his nemesis, Louis, a valuable lesson, Smithy ends up saving him from an assassin. From there, Smith and his friend Diller are dragged into his opponent’s messed-up world. Louis is part of "the Collectors", a group with way more money than sense dedicated to the competitive acquisition of truly one-of-a-kind items that define the secret history of the world.
When one of the group’s members loses his marbles, Smithy and Diller find themselves shanghaied to Nowhere. A well-named location in the middle of the desert, where a madman is trying to build an army from the worst of mankind.
Welcome to Nowhere is a wild ride from the author renowned for the darkly comic thrills of the Dublin Trilogy series and the McGarry Stateside books. It is a stand-alone novel that is a perfect introduction to McDonnell’s blend of comedy and compelling story that is earning him a growing legion of loyal fans.

Kinda disappointing
I have listened to a number of other novels by the author under both his pen names. I love the Stranger Times books & the Dublin Trilogy.
But this story just didn’t do much for me. I persisted to the very end. I kept waiting for that moment when I would get hooked in by the characters. But it didn’t happen!
On the face of it, all the elements were there that made the other books enjoyable - the quirky lighthearted humour, the almost implausible plot that is somehow believable, the off-centre world view, the pacey twists & turns of the plot. I was looking for a clever, diverting entertainment. And yet I have come away feeling that this was a shallow, cliched parody of this author at his best. I feel a little bit empty inside. And I’m kinda disappointed. 😞

Dissapointed
After reading and loving the stranger times I had high hopes for this series. However it was awful. Couldn’t get into it at all.
