The Special Boy is the compelling tale of a tragically orphaned Irish lad born in the strife ridden Belfast of the early 1950’s. Spirited away to the safety of a sleepy Indiana town, young Conor touches everyone he meets with a mystical power that harkens back to Celtic legends. Danger, mystery and tragedy follow him to his new home. Shaped by his mysterious gifts and the hardships he has endured, Conor continues to inspire those around him as the anti-war movement of the late 1960’s begins to define America.

Ron Radford was immersed at an early age in the Celtic tradition of oral storytelling. He brings that lyrical cadence and color to his writing. The Special Boy is best read aloud. The Special Boy is the author’s third book and his first novel.

The Special Boy, is available online at Amazon and Barnes and Noble websites.
