Summary: Side-splittingly funny.
Review: Simply the funiest SF book ever. Fast paced and easy to read with an endless berage of humorous encounters between Earth man Arthur Dent and various aliens following the destruction of the earth by Vogans constructing a hyperspace bypass. Oh, did I mention the earth is actually a giant supercomputer operated by mice! Sure it's insane, but you'll be too tickled to care.

Review: I suppose this book is written for a different type of reader than I am. I enjoy scifi, but this bordered on ridiculousness, and i was quite disappointed with the lack of substantial stuff going on (I ended the last page feeling I wasted my time). Even though I hated reading it, I will admit to bursting out loud in laughter a few times. It is truely funny in parts. This is a great book for monty python fans (which i am not). For anyone else looking for a serious read, buckle down and get some Heinlen or Gibson.

Summary: note to Andy P.
Review: This book was originally a radio program, or rather half of it -- "Restaurant" was the second half. The two really need to be read one immediately after the other to form the complete story.Science fiction doesn't get any funnier. Truly, the universe is far, far more bizarre than any man could imagine. Arthur's plight will reassure you that no matter how troublesome things may seem to you, there's always someone out there who's got it *lots* worse -- even if you think the improbability of it is infinite. :-)

Summary: Goofy and wonderful
Review: This little treasure is probably one of the most outrageous and ridiculously hilarious books ever written. With a flawless knack for humor, Douglas Adams brings to life his satire of our own universe, devilishly illustrating how much nonsense we're really surrounded by. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy takes us on a wild ride through the four corners of the final frontier, introducing us to dozens of one-of-a-kind personalities. Among them are Earth civilian Arthur Dent and galactic hitchhiker Ford Prefect, two of the most colorful characters one could ever hope to meet. You'll never forget the time you spend with these guys; it may even bring a tear to your eye to turn that very last page (thank GOD for sequels!). But the experience is worth it. Just be prepared to finish up with a lot of unanswered questions crowding your mind, and don't count on any guarantees that you'll be able to restrain yourself from reading the rest of the saga! Yes, although a very light read, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy boasts a kind of zany "philosophy" that'll keep you perplexed and intrigued and -- more than anything -- totally addicted. I'm telling you I can't wait to get started with the next one! If you think you're finally ready to learn the answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything, don't hesitate. $5.59 is a petty price to pay for such gleeful enlightenment.

Review: It may be a stupid question, but would somebody tell me what's so useful about the towel? I am reading this book now. I know it is a great book. but I cannot understand some of the contents. English is not my mother language.

Summary: Satire for the twentieth century
Review: This is a classic and hilarious book. My only complaints are that it is hard to get into in the beginning. Also, the end isn't that satisfying. I don't know why he didn't try to wrap up the ending a little more rather than making a sequal blindingly obvious. I can't wait to read the next as soon as I get some free time.

Summary: Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Review: I loved Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, it was so funny even the 3rd time that I read it, I laughed at all the jokes. It is about this guy named Arthur Dent who seems to be very unlucky because he gets his house and home planet destroyed all in one day. But luckly he gets saved by an alien moments before the destruction of the earth.Only to get thrown out an airlock become stoways aboard an stolen spaceship and get stuck with a very very depressed robot.

Summary: Hilarious
Review: Douglas Adams has a unique writing style that can make the most ordinary of things funny. When he uses this talent on the already bizarre plot, the results are superb. I can almost guarentee you will enjoy this book.
