This book spends a lot of time sending the main characters off on harebrained schemes without much forethought, but we do get a bit of background on how the Irish people were completely hosed during the lead-up to how the current political players gained power. A few years ago I would have called it unrealistic how the majority of the populace just turns a blind eye to the suffering of a huge minority, but… oh well. I STILL don’t really buy the overall premise of interdimensional psychic alien vampires, but obviously I’m enjoying this series enough to keep going.
