Published Reviews
Booklist Review: "The direct sequel to Empathy Is the Enemy (2006) finds magician John Constantine in Glasgow, where a psychic epidemic of empathy has provoked mass suicides among those exposed to other people's unbearable memories. Worse, the infection threatens to spread throughout Britain, then globally. To counter it, Constantine puts out a televised call for happy people, and the fate of humankind depends on the outcome of a soccer match. Crime-novelist Mina provides a stronger plotline than this series usually sees, and she nails the characterizations of Constantine and his established supporting cast. Manco's dark, moody art serves her well.--Flagg, Gordon Copyright 2007 Booklist"
