  • Lion Tamer delivers

    As a long time Chris Jericho fan and a reader of his books I had somehow missed Lion Tamer. I loved it pure and simple. Chris has never been shy about being true to himself and his roots. To actually learn about these roots peels back the layers of one of the greatest entertainers in the world. As big of a personality as Jericho is, it’s hard not to read the book to yourself in his voice. It’s an easy read because it’s a fun read. Whether you know anything about Chris Jericho or not, Lion Tamer is a must for your Jericho-Knowledge.

    I loved this book. Truly humorous, inspiring, gripping, and very candid. If your a fan of wrestling this is a must read. If your not a fan I still suggest you give this a read - this tale is a fantastic one and I appreciate Chris's honesty and unique humor it truly made the book. Many wrestling bio's are afraid to be completely honest- Chris does not fear his past and I'm glad he shared it with us. A MUST read for fans of bio's.

    Chris Jericho is an all around entertainer. Jericho is a phenomenal writer. His stories about the business are awesome, he told them very bluntly spoke to the truth. He did not have the Jericho curse when it comes to writing! I honestly teared up when I read the part about his mom becoming paralyzed. You can see the real emotions in his words. He explained the business in a way that even if you weren't a wrestling fan could understand how it works. I loved this masterpiece. Look out mick foley you have competition in literature. Can't wait to read Undisputed
