Pretty entertaining! I’d like to continue on in the series.  I lost a bit of the plot here and there, but that may just be a personal problem.

Read by the author for the Dove Audio label. Originally cassette, uploaded to YouTube. Surprisingly good audio quality and Douglas Adams sounds just as he writes, making for a fluid listen.

The book was fun, but confusing, with jumping viewpoints, characters changing names, and parts of the storyline just abandoned. It was an interesting read, but I will not read any more of the series.

After watching the show the book wasn’t what I expected but still an enjoyable read!

Confusing…

but a good, entertaining, and very Douglas Adams read. But the plot is so muddled towards the end, I sort of stumbled to the last page. Oh well. Shada next. I know the plot of that one. Tea anyone?
