Dylan Yates: Crazy, random, all over the place. Absolutely hilarious with plenty of the dives into little side bits about absolutely nothing it seems at the time, which then comes around later in some joking way with still no importance to the plot haha

scholargrowingmuscle: A decent continuation of the adventures of one Arthur Dent. The book continues the series’ tradition of exploring the complexities, ironies, and absurdities of life, the universe and everything. Yet as the story continues, the reader is teased into wondering what deeper part Arthur is unknowingly playing in the universe that a few have hinted to him but no one will tell him.

Mike Hanes: this book was advertised as a signed copy and it was, but the signature was a reproduction. this became obvious as the book was printed in England in 2005 and unforunatly Mr. Douglas Adams passed away in May of 2001. That being said, Tiffany (who works for the seller) went out of her way to make me happy with this order. I cannot state fully my apprection of the time and effort on her part to ensure my happiness. In my opinion, this is what makes a trully excellent company, because even the best of them will "enjoy the Opportunity" to have problems, only the best of them can make the customer feel as if there were no probem to begin with and be happy to do further buisness.

Coraline: I really and truly love Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I recommend the books to almost everyone I know and I haven't let anyone down so far. I will still certainly recommend the books in the series to just about anyone - but this one in particular was not quite as good as the first two in the series.

I'm not sure what it was about this book that kept me from getting as into it as the first two. The plot was a bit more scattered for me which probably makes the main contribution to my slight disappointment. Not that the other Hitchhiker's Guide books are not scattered - this one just had a different feel.

I am curious to re-read the book though. When I started reading the book, I got through the first several chapters and my kindle wasn't able to save the last read page. I went back through and re-read the chapters I had already read and it was way more hilarious than I had thought the first time around. I wouldn't be surprised if I end up with a much better rating once I give it a second read.

Anyway, I most certainly recommend the book - just read the first two books first. They certainly would give a much better introduction to the characters than this...
