Another QI fact book announced

Biggest one yet

The seventh annual QI book – 2,024 Facts to Stop You In Your Tracks – is to be published in October after  Faber & Faber acquired the rights.

The book contains over 600 facts more than any of the other titles in the series so far.

Series creator John Lloyd said: ‘In ancient Chinese philosophy, the number 10,000 is used to mean "the indefinite multiplicity of all forms and beings in existence". 

‘While we don't think we've got quite that far, I think we can reasonably say that this is the largest collection of exclusively interesting one-line facts ever assembled in the history of the universe.’

The team have previously released 1,234 QI Facts To Leave You Speechless, 1,423 QI Facts To Bowl You Over,  1,227 QI Facts To Blow Your Socks Off, 1,339 QI Facts To Make Your Jaw Drop, 

1,411 QI Facts To Knock You Sideways and 1,342 QI Facts To Leave You Flabbergasted as well as other spin-offs.

The new book will be published on October 18. Order here.
