One of the best books around, rivalled only by the scripts for the original radio plays.

This is such a hilarious book!
The weirdest, strangest, funniest and most random things happen as Arthur Dent is dragged out of his normal, mundane life and around most of the galaxy.
The good thing is that all the books (except for Young Zaphod plays it safe - which I have yet to understand...) follow on from each other - almost to the point where you don't notice that you have started a new book.
I would recommend this book to anyone who likes a laugh. Don't expect it to the like the movie or the radio series though as that wasn't the point...
If you enjoy this you could also try Tom Holt who has a similar writing style.
ENJOY!

Adams is a good author, it's true. I loved the first and second novels. If anyone notices that in the third and forth everything goes to custard, it was because the author when through personal difficulties. If you like happy endings don't read it - he never finished the book where everything turns out OK.
still - funny, quirky and worth a read.

I cannot recall a time when I have been so entralled with a novel. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is funny, witty, literate and beautifully written. Adams writing has a wonderful quality about it that makes you smile; if it doesn't, then you're just mental. I highly recommend reading this, particularly if you enjoy Terry Pratchet. Quality reading!

The funniest and most ingenious book that was ever written. Douglas please come back and finish Salmon of Doubt.
If you were lazy and just checked out the movie or just have never read this book then you don't know what you are missing out on.
So long and thanks for all the fish and what if the answer isn't 42... then what? I have eaten at the restaurant at the end of the universe have you?.
