Rating: 5 stars
Summary: best of the bunch
Review: This book is absolutely hilarious. The only question I have is: What happened to Fenchurch in Mostly Harmless?

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: not the best of the Hitchhiker books
Review: I've read the entire series, and I certainly love Adams's books. This would have to be my least favorite of the "trilogy," but it's still worth reading. It's amusing and contains several extremely funny scenes. This is a great book for anyone who like humor, offbeat characters (to say the least), and a plot with some really strange twists.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: If you read "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy"...
Review: ...you must read this! That's all there is to it. All the good old characters are back, and more importantly, the old style. Meet Fenchurch, who (I swear) is the subject of the Talking Heads hit, "And She Was". Find out why dolphins left Earth, and learn more about Life, the Universe, and Everything!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hahahaha: those are the only words for this book
Review: This was my first experiance with Douglas Adams' writing. It was funny, creative and most (and best) of all...Different. The story about how the two men went through the pack of bisuits was hilarious!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not my favorite
Review: Adams loses, I think, his creativity in this book. It's much harder to read. It also, I think, has much less of a point than the others (which doesn't say much). I do however like his take on God's final message.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A book for all times
Review: What can one say but........WOW! Again good ol' Duggie outdoes himself with yet another knee slappin', buckle up for your own safety, hide the good liqour story. The ending did lack somewhat of a meaningful purpose, but after all the laughter and good times one gets from his stories, one can let this slide by. A definite must for all who have a sense of humor (if not, this will help you get started)!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Inspired
Review: Quite simply, the most inspired book of the series apart from the original "Hitchiker's Guide." The finale would have been a fitting end of to the series (especially from a Marvin fan's point of view). Not quite as fresh as the original book, but the second best of the five. The Earth-bound perspective is fresh for the series and shows Adams versatility.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: The least hilarious book in the series
Review: Although this book contained one of the funniest parts in the series it did not live up to the standards set by earlier books. Adams still comes through with a few humorous points but it is not his best work.

One of the most hilarious parts in the Series was god's last message to his creation.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best in the series.
Review: Yes, I know, most of the reviews here seem to suggest that while it's not bad, it's not as good as some as the others. All right, it's not totally in the same vein as the others, and is quite possibly the most serious of the series, but I found it extremely funny. At times it even discards the humor for a few minutes, and gets downright touching, which gives the book something of a message.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not exactly the best book in the trilogy of five
Review: With this Hitchhiker's book, Adams hasn't really written his all-time classic. Not as long as any other volume of the trilogy, everything kind of drags in it. But every now and then the typical Adams comes back and God's Final Message to His Creation saved this book its four stars. Nevertheless, it's essential to be read. By anyone, anywhere. Right after Life, the universe and everything and Mostly hermless.
