This was a fun, bittersweet look at Douglas Adams last work before his untimely death. The unfinished book has a fun setup, and a lot of funny lines with interesting ideas, as Adams usually does. There were also several interviews, articles, and two short stories collected in this book, most of which were both funny and thought provoking. I will admit I found the Ghengis Khan one tough to get through, as it makes light of some truly terrible stuff, but the rest makes up for it. I don't feel comfortable giving this a specific ranking as it is an unfinished work combined with disparate writings. It is tragic that he passed away so young.
