Summary |
The gods must be crazy: For five thousand years, things have stayed pretty much the same for Xi and his fellow Bushmen. Then one day, an empty Coke bottle drops magically from the sky and life goes topsy-turvy in the face of this generous "gift of the Gods." The gods must be crazy II: Xixo again collides with the so-called civilized world when he embarks on a search for his children, who are accidental stowaways on a poacher's truck. He soon crosses paths with two very odd couples lost in the desert. Xixo finds himself drawn into a crazy adventure with people who know how to make magic machines, but constantly need to be saved from the wilderness and each other. |
