hgoravec 's review for:
The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
by Douglas Adams
So I loved this book when I was high school. It's been a while since I've read the series, and I kinda wish I had done reviews as I went of each individual book, especially since I finished this a while ago and so have forgotten many of the details. But, at the same time so much of the wit has stuck with me for decades.
The first two books are, to me, really one big book. The original Hitchhiker's really ends quite abruptly, so I consider the story spanning both books.
The Krikkit book reads like an episode of Doctor Who. The flying is the best bit.
Fenchurch is not great, and one of the areas that we really see an older style of science fiction writing.
And Mostly Harmless, I do love Arthur the sandwich maker. The ending is something I'm still processing, but I think it was the right one. I wish Random got more character development, and I don't think we see Zaphod again after Krikkit?
