When one of those irritating self-help books actually gets it right, then unnatural and worrying times are just around the corner . . . While the rest of the country is joining the new HappinessTM cult, Edwin (the wiry, grey-suited, low-level editor at US publisher Panderic Press) is in trouble.A cartel of drug, alcohol, tobacco and drug-rehab bosses have a contract out on him. It's all the fault of the mysterious Tupac Soiree, and his book What I Learned on the Mountain. But who is Tupac? And how can Edwin stop the world from succumbing to this plague of HappinessTM? Will Ferguson has created a comic masterpiece, a brutal satire of modern times.

'Though it may make you laugh out loud, HappinessTM also raises disturbing questions about the way we choose to live, and why.'
Sunday Herald

'For me, however, the most disturbing passage of HappinessTM comes in the first chapter, when Edwin do Valu is searching through the awful manuscripts in the Panderic slush pile. To my horror, a good few of the proposals are similar to ones that I have sent to publishers myself.'
The Observer

'A breezy, entertaining read.'
Metro
