My only minor gripe about Who is My Enemy? is that it covers so much territory, and does so with such rapidity. Thanks to the Newton Institute, I could find both existing and currently building models.. Not sure why someone thought it would be a good idea to make it a paper back. Moving from place to place as the supply grows thin the creature arrives in the barrio and sensing Ricardo's power is reminded of his former human state a state that it now wishes to return too.
