I just ordered this off Amazon about an hour ago.
I loved "A Lion's Tale". I thought "Undisputed" had great parts but the Fozzy chapters were pretty skip-able.
Is "The Best in the World: At What I Have No Idea" pretty good? Im looking forward to reading it. I already heard about the Vince/Kofi story which is great.
Thoughts? Comments?

It's a really good read. A good chunk of it is about his feud with Shawn Michaels and the deal with Mickey Rourke. Some really good stories. I still haven't read A Lion's Tale. Lol. I'd say it's as good as Undisputed though. If you didn't like the Fozzy chapters of Undisputed though then you may find the last several chapters kinda skippable then.

I've yet to read any Chris Jericho books. I think I'll need to order on my Kindle.

I really enjoyed "A lions tale" because it's a story of some kid in Winnipeg who was trying to reach his dreams in pro wrestling. It was a great read cover to end. "Undisputed" started out good but then fell of once that "kid" became the mega star. I feel Jericho lost a little bit of where he came from, but I guess that will happen with anyone once they reach their dreams. I haven't read the third book and probably won't for a while. I'm just guessing he'll be in full on "rock/wrestling God" mode and the innocence of his first book will be long gone.

I'm about halfway through it. It's alright, some really fun stories in it. Those people who think that an old video of Santino doing judo throws on Youtube mean Santino's a SUPERSERIOUS EXCELLENT WORKER~ are going to be upset by Jericho's comments on him, though.

What did he say? That Santino's awesomely entertaining largely because he's so terrible at wrestling.

Might ask for all of his books for Christmas this year.

I've read A Lion's Tale and Undisputed about 13 times each, can see myself doing the same with the new one.

I read his first one, but haven't read the second or third ones yet.
I think I'm going to pick up Undisputed and the most recent one really soon though. Jericho always has awesome stories to tell.

Nope, but his first book was brilliant.
Haven't gotten around to his second one, but I will at some point.

First is great, second is good but the high level of Fozzy content makes my expectations for the third a bit lower.

I'm sure he will cover most of the material on his podcast before long.

I looked for it at Barnes and Noble but didn't find it. I was disappointed.

I bought it to read on my iPhone, and I'm up to WrestleMania 25 already. It's a great read IMO, Jericho is a great storyteller and always ends up in funny/crapty situations that make for a great read.

Jericho's books and Bret Hart's book are very good and easy reads.
I'm expecting Jericho's book to arrive in the mail today or tomorrow from Amazon.

I loved the first two, and will definitely be reading this one. I've got a couple of other things I want to read first, though, so I'll probably hold off until Christmas.
