Pros: Fun, exciting, and unique. Very entertaining. Cons: The last two books in the collection aren't as good.
Since I started using the internet, I have made some online friends. One day I noticed that a few of them were discussing a book, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, that sounded very interesting. I followed the conversation for a little ...
Pros: thought-provoking, great characters, funny as hell Cons: Adams' style may take a while for some people to get into
This is a collection of all of Douglas Adams' "Hitchhiker's" books to date: "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy," "The Restaurant at the End of the Universe," "Life, the Universe, and Everything," "So Long,...
Pros: Hysterical and filled with wonderful advice. Cons: It doesn't look like there will be any more books added onto the "trilogy".
Yup, this was supposed to be a trilogy, but Douglas Adams can't do anything like a "normal" human. Straying from the beaten path and looking back at society Adams has plenty to say.
Pros: Funny, inspired, and sometimes insane, Adams was at the top of his game... Cons: None, unless you have the heart of a Vogon.
Part One: Why I Like Douglas Adams…. I first discovered Douglas Adams' zany and irreverent Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy purely, as some good things often occur, by accident. It was 1981, or close enough to that year, anyway. I was in high ...
Pros: it's the most wonderful book i've ever read Cons: the end.
This book is a marvel. That's the best I can say for it at this point. I have read it so many times that when i flip through at random and I see a couple of words I instantly know that point in the book and, increasingly often, the rest of the...
Pros: humor, wit, sarcasm (via Marvin), amazing points of view. Cons: not a one
I was first introduced to this book back in high school, and have been a fan of it ever since. The book starts with Arthur Dent a common, ordinary man from London, England, trying to convince a couple of bulldozers not to demolish his house...
...
Pros: Entire Hitchhiker's series in one book, nice price, sexy cover. Cons: Towel not included.
I'll keep this review short, because there is absolutely no way you can lose with this book. The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide is a compilation of Douglas Adam's entire Hitchhiker's series, including The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, The...
Pros: This book has All the answers! Cons: You may not want or believe them!
Reading Douglas Adams is like trying to follow a mad little elf through a vast three dimensional puzzle!There are so many levels to enjoy his works on, I hardly know where to start!
I've read the complete set (in hardback) more than once (and...
Pros: Funny, Science Fictiony, Almost makes one think, too Cons: why did it have to end?
Having only previously read the original "Hitchhiker's Guide" I was delighted to see all the sequels set up in one hardcopy - and oh boy, the insanity doesn't stop with the first book.
Pros: amazingly funny, easy to read Cons: some of the humor is complex
The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy may be the greatest humor series ever written. Douglas Adams has the same humorous vision in his books that Monty Python has in their shows. However, some of the humor is pretty academic, and there is so much of it...
Pros: British comedy, all of the books in one binding, unique characters, brilliant writing. Cons: You'll never want to lend it out, in case it isn't returned.
Douglas Adams, I must say, is one of my favorite authors of all time. When I saw that he had all of his "trilogy" (all five books of it) gathered into one big collection, i immediately bought copies for my friends. Growing up in a sci-fi...
I can't believe that Douglas Adams died. It just can't be possible. He produced one of the greatest, most memorable, most quotable series in all the sci-fi / fantasy world, and he made it so satirical and ironic that it never stopped being funny, even...
Pros: Great read, great story, excelent collection! Cons: Not the best bind.
This is a very enjoyable read! It is nice to have all the books in one bind. This edition has all the books and also includes a short story and a interesting and entertaining introduction written by Adams.The story it self reads well and keeps ...
Pros: Satirical comedy at its best. Cons: Those who love slapstick won't enjoy this.
Douglas Adams is by far one of the better satirical contemporary writers. Recapturing a seemingly lost art, Adams utilizes his biting wit to cleverly mock present day man, his inventions and his foolish activities. This is a far cry from the simple,...
