And Another Thing... (Hitch-Hikers Guide to the Galaxy, Bk 6)
reviewed on + 2 more book reviews


This book has as much resemblance to the original Hitchhikers Trilogy as a nice cup of tea has to dregs of rotting leaves suctioned up from the depths of a swamp on a strange and tasteless planet. The idea is the same, but the execution leaves a lot to be desired. All the characters are there, and the storyline also, but something in the telling just doesn't evoke a memory of Douglas Adams. It is a tale of Arthur and Ford, but the tone is different. If the reader is just interested in what happened to the characters, then this book may be for you. If you are looking for the heir apparent to Douglas Adams, you probably won't find him here.
