Summary: Truly classic material of genious proportions
Review: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy represents some of the most original, funny, spellbinding material that I've ever read. The first book contains the most creativity, but the least linearity because of the original format (radio shows). The second and third take off from there and create a crescendo of momentum that I wasn't able to put down (I quite literally read all 5 books within a few days time). The last couple of books might be the weakest, but that's mainly because they must follow such incredible prequels. I cannot overemphasize the entertainment that this series offers. The Hitchhiker's Guide represents a true genre-bursting collection. While at first glance these books might seem to appeal mainly to science fiction readers, they actually have very little in common with sci-fi and readers wishing for a sci-fi environment and story may not find what they expect. These books should appeal to any reader, but those old enough to recall some of the 1980's will especially be able to understand the author's period and setting.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: If you only read one sci-fi/fantasy book - - This is it!
Review: The increasingly inaccuratly named Hitchhiker's trilogy (5 books) is the absolute best series I've ever read. I love the characters, plots, and surprises that come in along the way. If you can't travel through time and space on your own, it's worth the time to hitchhike along with Douglas Adams on this wild ride. I recommend these books for everyone - I (obviously) think they're great!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Imaginative!
Review: This book is great! The whole concept of two men one alien, one human getting picked up by a space ship is really amazing. This book is really great and fun to read for teenagers and adults.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: DON'T PANIC!!!
Review: This is by far my favorite book of all time. On the surface, it is an amazingly funny and completely irreverent story... in the style of Monty Python, the plot goes nowhere, but has fun getting there. If you want more than a novel that makes you laugh out loud, if you aren't satisfied with simple goofiness, look deeper... you'll find parodies of everything from beauracracy to organized religion, all sharp enough to get the point across but gentle enough not to offend. Adams is a truly gifted novelist. So grab a towel, hitch a ride with a vogon and, whatever you do, DON'T PANIC!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best stuff ever.
Review: This is my favourite book, and I just keep wondering how he could think of these things. Every time you think you know everything, something comes up...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Ford Perfect and Arthur Dent hilarious adventure
Review: This is the best SCI-FI book I've read so far. Its funny and really amazing. After reading it your concept of live, the universe and everything will change totally, you will never leave your tower or even your Sub Ehta Sense-O-Matic. Don't miss it or you will regret it. Mariano Luna :)
