telthor 's review for:
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
by Douglas Adams
I mean.
Yeah it's a great classic, really funny, really full of little bits of fantastic nonsense. Such classics of dork literature. But I still hold that Terry Pratchett could invent a character with more facets and detail and drama (particularly in the middle/later half of the series) and /still/ fit all the comedy and little bits of nonsense and satire in the plot without too much trouble. These characters read a bit flat.
Admittedly, it /may/ be because I'm into fantasy more than sci-fi. The What Ifs of fantasy usually grab my attention more than the How Does of sci-fi.
