Weird issues with the sound? Some sentence beginnings were cut off for some reason. Only really annoying in the anagram section.

Fantastic funny listening shared by all the family. A first pick for our long journeys. Highly recommend

Funny and knowledgeable

I'm a fan of QI, but sadly this book just didn't do it for me. There are some interesting facts but it jumps around all over tue place instead of having a logical order (e.g. all the space bits together). There are some annoying sound effects too. And when they use the phrase "we know from the Bible that...", it lost all credibility.

Not Quite

Great for background listening while doing mundane tasks around the house or garage or work. (Am trying to hit the 15 word minimum)

Does exactly what it says

Great book, as always. I love how they can take a subject/question that could be seen as boring and instantly turn it into something quite interesting.

another certified banger

Very interesting questions, a few funny answers the only negative thing I have to say is that maybe some answers have been said to quick and it was difficult to follow. But overall very good and I recommend!

Very easy and interesting to listen to

This is pretty much the exact same content as Funny you should ask again. If you have already bought that no need to get this

Reused content

I love all things QI and no such thing, so naturally I bought the new book. The same as I have always done. This is the same god damn book they’ve already released. I want my money back. Anybody know how to ask for a refund on audible?

Rip off

Lots, if not all, is material from previous QI books (or NSTAAF books), and that is not made clear in the description.

Reused Material

if you already own any QI books it is just repeating things in them not new content and is a a waste of a credit

Don't bother
