Merlin Publishing

Merlin Publishing opened for business in Dublin, Ireland in 2000 to concentrate on producing original, quality non-fiction, on any subject.

In the last five years Merlin Publishing has enjoyed a number of major successes including, Crime Lords by award-winning journalist Paul Williams, which has sold over 100,000 copies and is now in its fourth reprint, Paper Tigers by popular RTÉ presenter Mary Kennedy, They Never Came Home by Tony McCullagh and Neil Fetherstonhaugh which was recently made into the RTÉ drama ‘Stardust’, and GUBU Nation GUBU Nation by veteran Irish journalist Damian Corless.

The Merlin backlist also includes bestsellers such as Evil Empire, also by Paul Williams, The Modern Prince by Justin O’Brien, and Jack Lynch by Bruce Arnold.

Most recently Merlin published the highly successful Rucks, Mauls and Gaelic Football, rugby legend Moss Keane’s autobiography with Billy Keane, The Love Guide by Sunday World sexologist Dr Angela Brokmann and Postcards from Elsewhere by travel-writer Barbara O’Shea.

During Summer 2006 we published our third book with Ireland’s best-selling true crime writer Paul Williams, The Untouchables.

Autumn 2006 has been busy with three major crime books A Criminal & An Irishman by Patrick Nee, The Outsiders by Eamon Dillon and Homicide by John Burke and Eoghan Rice. No One Wants You by Celine Roberts is now going into its third print run.
