500 | _aThe million-copy bestselling author of Yes Man and Join Me immerses himself in the contagious, dangerous world of disinformation, everyday lies, trolls, conspiracy theories and those trying to fight back. 'Shocking, timely and - as you’d expect from Danny Wallace - very funny' - Adam Kay 'Thrilling, thought-provoking, funny and wise. Danny has an incredible knack for taking the bizarre fringes and rabbit holes of humanity and making them compulsively laugh-out-loud readable.' - Danny Robins, journalist, presenter of Uncanny and writer of 2:22 A Ghost Story. 'Danny Wallace lightens this dark topic about lies and propaganda with his trademark humour and gets the balance just right' – BBC, Books to Read in 2024.
