A fantastic book that accompanies the TV series wonderfully well. This book contains the many General Ignorance questions that were asked throughout the series, and gives a more detailed explanation of the true answers. While it shares many formats to other quiz books that have been released this year, it is far more interesting by far.

The book is formatted very professionally. The questions are easily distinguishable from the answers. Although the book does have a few errors in it, and ironically, sometimes give answers that are also obvious but wrong, this is a definite best buy. The cheap price that most bookstores offers means that it should be a nobrainer. It was a nobrainer purchae for me at least. Kudos to the QI elves who did all the researching.

Not a bad review, but it would be nice to include a bit more detail in your reviews in future.
