Chris Jericho worked his way into the big time of wrestling after training in Canada. He had his first pro fight at just 19, but it wasn't until he was 25 that he made the big time, joining the WCW. Within a year he had won his first title. Finally, in August 1999 he moved to the WWF (now WWE) where he would eventually become one of the biggest names on their books, and bedcome the undisputed Heavyweight Champion. In this fascinating account, he relives his early days in the sport in Mexico and Japan, and working his way up alongside Chris Benoit and Lance Storm. He also recalls his rivalries with The Rock, Steve Austin and Triple H among others. He retired from the sport in August 2005, but there have been many rumours since then of a comeback. A Lion's Tale is as honest, outspoken and direct as the man himself.

I recently ordered Chris Jericho's book and in one sitting, I was about halfway done with it. For some reason, I couldn't put the book down! I can't remember the last time I literally laughed this hard while reading a book. As I got closer to the end, I stopped reading it just because of the fear of finishing it and I wouldn't have anything left to read. I ended up finishing it though. I must say, this book has got it all! Tons of humor, inspiration, motivation and even those quiet sad moments. Mick Foley said the book is "Thoughtful, thorough, and laugh-out-loud funny." I have to say, I couldn't agree with him more! I definitely recommend this book. You will NOT be disappointed!
