It's basically a geeky kid's dream: a book of absurd questions, researched and answered seriously by the creator of XKCD and narrated by Wil Wheaton. I love the pop culture (or is it geek culture?) references, and the answers are so serious it's both fascinating and comical all at once. The only pitfall is that it's a long audiobook... I wound up taking a couple of months to finish it because I need strong characters to keep me engaged in a book, and this one just doesn't have any. I would probably recommend reading the physical book since it has comic illustrations, although any true geek should at least listen to a few of the best chapters read by Wheaton :)
