Not as good as the first time I read it, but they never are. Still, pretty good, for a novel that was written in three weeks.
Just OK. A little too wild and tongue-in-cheek for me.
I tried to read this book but was only able to make it through the first few chapters. It's a Douglas Adams story written by Terry Jones (of Monty Python fame; the reason for this is described in the introduction). It's written in a typical Adams fashion using lots of silly names. But the story itself was not at all interesting. I'm not surprised I've never heard of this before I saw the used copy for a few dollars.
easily the best book I've ever read that was based on a CD-ROM computer game, especially under the sub-category of books written by comedians I like based on CD-ROM games by favorite authors. I dare say it tops both of those lists.
A fun, quick read. Nothing too amazing -- the characters are rather flat and the plot a bit thin -- but the witty writing makes up for it.
If you love Douglas Adams or Terry Jones, do yourself a favour: don't read this book and risk it ruining your favourable opinion of them. Terrible. It reads like I wrote it myself while in high school.
This was an okay book. It's not nearly as funny as Douglas Adams but it has that sort of irreverent tone that makes it fun. I didn't like half the characters, but since I liked the other half, it kept me going enough to get through the book. I'm also curious about the video game - I wonder how hard it is to find nowadays?
Nad počtem hvězdiček jsem hodně váhala, ale nakonec jsem se rozhodla, že by bylo nespravedlivé zvyšovat knize hodnocení jen kvůli jménu autora.
Přiznávám, že "Titanic" byl pro mě docela zklamáním. Vše, co se mi tak líbilo na Stopařově průvodci, se zde jaksi míjelo účinkem. Čtení mě nijak zvlášť nebavilo, i když jsem se sem tam zasmála typickému "Douglasovskému" vtipu.
Rozhodla jsem se tedy pro dvě hvězdičky - "It was OK", ale nic víc.
