"I'm constantly impressed with the questions which I think are the perfect combination of challenging yet answerable."
- Jeremy Cahnmann, Owner of Brain Bash Trivia and Two-Time Geek Bowl Champion
"Graig Zethner's book is a rich gold mine of trivia tidbits in context. I began playing his weekly quizzes online, and while I was studying for the Jeopardy! Tournament of Champions, they became a regular addition to my trivia study regimen. Brief and well-spread over a representative group of trivia categories, one quiz at a time makes a good daily or weekly exercise, but his rich contextual feedback is what allows you to really learn. There are countless facts in my personal study notebook gleaned from the explanations of answers. Quite a treat having them all compiled in one easy to access place."
- Anneke Garcia, Four-time Jeopardy! Champion (2019)
