On their travels they met Balder who is a garden gnome who is also a Viking God. and yet another possible hallucinations. will Cameron find the cure? Going Bovine is a really good book, its messed up and twisted, really strange in a lot of ways. One big way being the characters. A Garden Gnome who just happens to be a viking god. very Unique. this book was one of the more humorous books i have read, keeping in mind, i generally read fiction novels. I found a fair bit of this book funny. To be honest the ending confused me. i had to re read it to understand what was going on. This Novel is thought-provoking in a way that is different than our world even tends to think. Libba Bray dares to think outside the box. This epic adventure was very entertaining. Very well written. Funny. and Best of all thought-provoking. if a book doesn't leave you with questions unanswered it wasn't a good book. a good Arther makes the reader really consider the text and makes them wonder why things are happening, Libba Bray does all of this. I would recommend this book in an instant. Emilie
