I really enjoyed Adams’ writing style. There’s so many fun quotes you could pull from this. I also really liked what he did with the Electric Monk and Gordon Way’s ghost. They had such fun storylines. The horse as well.
My biggest disappointment was Dirk Gently himself. I was expecting him to be whimsical and charming, but he was just so full of himself it was annoying. He didn’t really do much either.
The ending felt a bit rushed.
