Publisher's Summary

What would you do when you realised your mission in life was to take on a global superpower?

Rebel: The Awakening is a fast paced listen that shows the human face of the man referred to as "Ireland's son".

Part 1 of the story of Theobald Wolfe Tone's short life, takes you on a rollercoaster ride from the first minute. Uniting a nation behind his vision, we learn about a young passionate man who is prepared to go to any lengths to secure freedom and rights for his fellow Irishmen.

Never before has a novel been written about the life and times of Wolfe Tone. While it tells the story of the man, it accurately follows the historical path his life took.

Irish history and politics have always been controversial, and this doesn't disappoint.

If you like your characters “real” within historical fiction, Hilary Mantel’s Wolf Hall, or Philippa Gregory’s The Other Boleyn Girl, you will not be able to put down Rebel.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
