Published by Bloomsbury in January 2014, Lymbery's book Farmageddon: The True Cost of Cheap Meat is described as 'a wake-up call to change our current food production and eating practices, looking behind the closed doors of the runaway industry and striving to find a better farming future.'[10][11] Joanna Lumley says of this book, "A devastating indictment of cheap meat and factory farming. Don't turn away: it demands reading and deserves the widest possible audience.”[12]
