3.5

Very adventurous and at times, laugh-out-loud hilarious. You won't find a whole lot of substance here, but a book like this doesn't need it.

For what it does, it does very well.

Very charming and entertaining, Adams' style of writing is ceaselessly amusing. Whether it be from my joy in reading it or simply the writing style, this book feels much shorter than it actually is. A gripping start to the 'trilogy' it sets up the stage perfectly for the madness to come.
