How reliable is Anthony Colpo's 'The Great Cholesterol Con' ?

It says that the cholesterol diet heartdisease theory is a farce .And statin drugs are useless and harmful .

Absolutely true. There are much better authors to read. Colpo's conclusions are correct but his tone is sometimes abrasive. We both are furious that the drug company's research is completely biased to sell statin drugs. 27 billion for the drugs, 30 billion for test and doctor visits, 50 billion to treat the side effects of statins. That's over 100 billion dollars and they kill more patients than they help.
I will list some other sources that back him up.
Pharmacist who's life was almost ruined by Lipitor

Whenever you look at a book on a medical topic, look at the author's qualifications. Colpo is trained in fitness. He has no training in medicine.

There are numerous well-designed and well-controlled studies that show a mortality/morbidity benefit for certain populations that take statins to lower their cholesterol.

It is self revealing: It's a con in itself. What you say is against current medical evidence. It is up to you to decide who to believe. Good luck.
