stellarkruize 's review for:

Mostly Harmless by Douglas Adams
2.0

I finally got to finish this one. I'd lost some steam with this series after the previous and a bit of the way in this one. (I'd read up to chapter 5, was like meh, and sat it down for a long time). This one seemed to lack a lot of the charm that the first couple had. It really seems like they were really trying to figure out what else to do with the crew. The previous one I was suggested to read in this series, Zaphod Plays It Safe, didn't seem to have anything to do with this one. There was no Zaphod either which I'm kind of meh about. They seemed to really try to make him more important in the other books and then just dropped him like a good habit. The ending of the series really went out on a whimper. The book, at this point, became more of a Vogon check list to mark off. Well...I guess onto other funny sci-fi books and see how the TV series is.
