Un classique humoristique, le pendant SF du disque monde de Terry Pratchett ...
Excellent bouquin, complètement barré, avec peut être un coup de mou entre le 4 et le 5, mais un must read.
La fin est triste, mais l'ensemble des aventures d'Arthur Dent et de tous ceux qui gravitent autour de lui est fantastique.
Je recommande chaudement.

I have tried to read the series a couple of times, but never made it past the first book. This time it stuck. I enjoyed everything except for the fourth novel, which seemed pretty pointless. There was always an "I'm making this up as I go along" feel to the series and I had trouble following the plot of all five books, but the inspired lunacy kept me engaged and I'm not sure that Douglas Adams is the place you'd look to for coherent narratives anyway. Glad to have picked up this substantial piece of pop culture that I neglected when it came out.
