Critic reviews

"Every story in the book is interesting, and Lewis includes a 'bonus fact' at the end of each story, which is a mini mind bender on its own." (BoingBoing)
"A mind-tickling encyclopedia... Now I Know is a treat in its entirety... an oasis of learning about what you don't yet know... but are glad you found." (Brain Pickings)

Brief but with you just the right amount of detail. Writing style and reader made it perfect. I learned a lot.

Entertaining & educational

I downloaded this to occupy the long hours during my weekly cross-country drives.... and while the content is generally fun and interesting, the narrator, Anthony Haden Salerno, is so annoying, so off-putting, so irritating, that it really detracts from the content. I've done a good bit of narration myself -- not audio books, but a great many video productions, a couple of documentaries, and thousands of commercials -- and I cannot imagine who cast this guy. I think his approach may work for other applications, but not this. Nonetheless, though, if you can get past that, the stories are generally good.

Interesting Content... but....

The content was very interesting, but the narrator's voice got on my nerves. Around every other sentence ended with a breathy, whispery delivery used for drama and emphasis. It quickly became annoying.

Great addition to Dan's daily emails and to his first book. Great for kids as well.

I've always been a "curious" person..., so this audio book was a good fit for me. I would have liked to have more history with/about the stories..., but otherwise I enjoyed this book a lot. Recommended if you are the "curious" type about life!

Fun facts!

What did you like best about Now I Know More? What did you like least?

The content of the book probably bears out the title; however, I could not get past the narration. The reader does little justice to the text.

If you’ve listened to books by Dan Lewis before, how does this one compare?

N/A

What didn’t you like about Anthony Haden Salerno’s performance?

The "performance" is over the top, overly dramatic, and breathy - to the point of distraction. I could not get past the first two chapters.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

No.

Any additional comments?

To prospective buyers: do yourselves a favor, take a pass on this one.

It has a lot of fun trivia, but I question the expertise of some of his sources.
