So while I think the balance of things could be better crafted - there's the past and the future here and they don't gel, and should the narrator join in with the cast in punning, or vice versa? - I can easily admit I sound like a mature pedant, for whom the difference between his real age and that of the target audience here is just too great. Your nearest child won't have read such a cow-based comedy action book about Vikings and future science before, and I'm sure as part of a successful author's output this will still moo-ve off the shelves with a gusto.
I must thank the publishers for my review copy. Younger children will enjoy [[Twit by Steve Cole]].
[[The Quest of the Warrior Sheep by Christopher Russell and Christine Russell]] focuses on a different species, but shows that charm the adult audience can also love.
