Book Description

Publication Date: Oct 26 2010

The official tie-in to the major new Sky One TV series

Are the Seven Wonders really as wondrous as everybody says?

Karl Pilkington doesn’t think so, but he hates travelling and prefers throwing sand at crabs or, at a push, eating English food in Spain. Ricky Gervais and Steven Merchant are outraged, goading Karl to broaden his mind and visit each of these famous sites for himself.

The book is a rich, fact-filled and hilarious travelogue, written with all of Karl’s unusual observational skill and counterintuitive logic that the millions of Ricky Gervais podcast fans have learned to love.

4.0 out of 5 stars I love the Idiot Mar 16 2013

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
If you like Carl's show then you will like the book which just compliments it. Funny and filled with lots of Pilkingtonian chat. Not a book for a serious and thoughtful read. Just buy it for the laughs.

5.0 out of 5 stars The British do it again! Feb 7 2013

I loved the book. Having seen the show, I enjoyed how ridiculous the premise was all over again. The book arrived quickly and was in excellent condition.

4.0 out of 5 stars I love Karl Jan 5 2013
By lushnabi
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I've watched the entire season, twice. I was afraid this book wouldn't add anything new. While it does detail some of the same info that you learn from watching the tv show, there is some new stuff that pops up. For instance, more excerpts from Karl's diary and his personal thoughts. I pack this in my bag and read it when I have a few moments to kill. Love it.
