Cows in Action by Steve Cole
Genius Professor McMoo has managed to build a time machine from discarded farming machinery. He's about to run away with two cow friends, Pat and Bo Vine, when a very strange, futuristic, robotic cow - a ter-moo-nator - appears and attacks them...because the Prof, Pat and Bo are destined to become star agents of the C.I.A. - Cows in Action, a crack team of cow commandos! In the future, cows live peacefully with humans as equals, not as food. But someone's using time travel to interfere with history - and the Prof has to help stop that! In this first adventure, the C.I.A. must travel back to the time of Henry VIII, where Henry's wife, Anne of Cleves, has been replaced by a cow in disguise! With a CD read by the author himself, this brilliantly funny and wildly quirky new series from the creator of Astrosaurs promises to be moo-vellous fun.
"Another smart, quirky tale from the creator of the popular Astrosaurs series" Waterstones Books Quarterly "[The series] just keeps going from strength to strength" The Bookseller "This series presents bovines at their brilliant best kowtowing to none and to nothing" Achuka
Born in 1971, Steve Cole spent a happy childhood in rural Bedfordshire being loud and aspiring to amuse. He liked books, and so went to the University of East Anglia to read more of them. Later on he started writing them too, with titles ranging from pre-school poetry to Young Adult thrillers (with more TV and film tie-ins than he cares to admit to along the way). In other careers he has been the editor of Noddy magazine, the voice of a Dalek and an editor of fiction and nonfiction book titles for various publishers. He is the author of the fantastically successful Astrosaurs series for young readers.
