Best Books for Christmas, iNews
The Book of the Year [is] a compendium of topical facts in 365 categories. It’s laced with their dry wit, and likely to end up in many a pub-quizzer’s Christmas stocking.
Daily Telegraph
Hugely enjoyable . . . Deserves to become an annual institution . . . Its tone is just right: deadpan, sharp and disarmingly offbeat.
5 * review, Craig Brown, Mail on Sunday
If you love funny facts as much as we love funny facts then you should get your funny fact-loving faces in front of The Book of the Year.
Comedy Central (via @ComedyCentralUK)
QI is such an institution that even the programme’s researchers are taking over the world. Fully justified that is too, as anyone who’s heard their podcast, No Such Thing As A Fish, will confirm. It’s packed with killer facts – and so is this book.
Daily Mail
Absolutely ideal for the Christmas holidays.
Mark Radcliffe, BBC Radio 6 Music
A bumper anthology of ridiculous but true facts from the anoraks (and QI researchers) behind hit podcast No Such Thing As A Fish.
Metro
Bitesize chunks of truth in a year of fake news. If you love fact-based trivia, you'll get a kick out of this.
Funniest Books for Christmas, Irish Times
Both fantastically absorbing and entertaining.
The Bookseller
The Book of The Year will prove the perfect Christmas gift, the ideal conversation starter (and stopper), and the ultimate source of wisdom for all lovers of trivia.
British Comedy Guide
The sheer scope of the research takes the breath away, and the humour is perfectly judged.
The Season’s Best Gift Books, Spectator
The weirdest facts behind the headlines of the previous 12 months.
