Review of the CDs and the hard copy. A galactic freeway is coming through, and you guessed it, the Earth is in the way. Listening to the audio CDs adds an extra dimension to the book. You do get time to catch your breath. And my CD player is in the car. Somehow I survived. I would say that one great advantage to CDs is the ability to hear how the names are pronounced, and you get inflections that, intended or not, help understand where they are going before they get there. Another advantage is that CDs, like acid-free paper, should outlast the reader. How many times have you asked a simple question and received the answer "42"? Yep, you are a victim of this book. Many of the clichés and truisms that rival Shakespeare are creeping into our vocabulary. And attitudes - "It has been on file." If you are the one person who somehow got through life without reading this series or at least seeing this on TV, then you are in for a treat. Somehow, this story is earmarked as sci-fi, and I suppose it can be in a sense; it has all the elements necessary and delivers a powerful message to the local Zoning Board. I will not go through the story, as that is why you are reading the book. You need to sit down for the next sentence. This book has changed my life.
I loved the first book and the last one most. The others were okay but those two were great. A lot of nonsense things happen and it would be cool if someone would do a show, I think the goofiness would do really well. 👍
I fell in love with this book when I was 12 years old & finally finished the series at 42! If you're into British humour, then you'll enjoy this book.
Great series of books. Glad to add to my collection.
it has 2 books not related to either movie that was made. in one Dent falls in love with the woman who figured out the meaning of life, and the next book explains WHY earth MUST be destroyed
I bought this along with 2 other books and I just can't wait to read all the books with the bonus story!!!
