Suffice to say, those who watch The Colbert Report have an idea of what to expect in this book if you like the TV show, you'll like the book. If you do not, you will not. And if you're a neophyte I'd take the gamble and try the book it's an easy read.

Fans may realize just how much the graphics that augment Colbert's television monologues help enhance his humor due to their absence in this boo.(which I listened to in Audio, narrated by the author with a little help from friends. This certainly helped stay in the spirit of the TV show.)

Perhaps the one thing that was lacking and had to be was the timelieness of some of the opinions expressed. Since the book can't be prepared and tweaked within 24 hours, the matters discussed had to be more long-term in nature.

Rating: 4 stars. Having seen some of his (in my opinion) best work on television, I know this was good but that he's got more in the tank.
