### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Almost as good as the Radio Series
  

*by P***T on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 October 2017*

This review is for the current (2017) ebook edition.A splendidly funny and silly book, quite a successful novelisation of the Radio Series.Note that the extracts from the archives come right at the end of Chapter 35, and are interesting, especially the fax from Douglas to the American script editor, explaining why some things shouldn't be changed. For some reason, they're not listed in the table of contents.

    Crazy Loons!
  

*by M***Y on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 July 2019*

Wow, this was a crazy looney toons book! I listened to this an audiobook as part of the Pink and Dizzy reading challenge, and I have to say I’m so glad I did it this way rather than reading the book. Stephen Fry is just brilliant; he does all the different voices just as he does through the Harry Potter books. Zaphod Beeblebrox sounded like Gilderoy Lockhart from ‘The Chambers of Secrets’; he did the same voice for these characters, so that was funny.There were so many genuine laugh-out-loud moments; I didn’t expect to enjoy it as much as I did. My mind did wander a little in places, however, but this didn’t spoil the book, and I didn’t feel like I missed out on anything vital.The mind of Douglas Adams is certainly one to be admired with all the crazy, insane madness he came up with. It was just so out there! I can certainly see why this has become a classic. I now also understand the reference of the answer to the universe being 42! I had heard this many times before reading, so it was nice to finally put this into context.I’m very keen to read or listen to the follow-on books, however, they have been narrated by Martin Freeman, so I really hope he manages to do them as much justice as Stephen Fry did.

    Hyperspeed straight to Red Dwarf!
  

*by S***Y on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 April 2020*

Didn't enjoy this book at all. Two stars for the original concept only. The writing style and language seems forced and contrived which only serves to override any empathy that the reader may have had for the characters. This equates to a lack of reliability and I found I just didnt care what happened to them the further I read on. The humour has dated badly and it appears to be written for teenagers who want to learn how to read lengthly/ pointless made up words in a desparate attempt to sound more intelligent. Thanks but no thanks, I'll stick to Red Dwarf!
