This is a lot funnier than I remembered and, if anything, even better that The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy.
It feels that Adams really hit his stride with this book and the absurdities that make his writing such a joy to read feel a lot more pointed and, consequently, a great deal more effective.
