Nach langem hin und her habe ich nach etwa der Hälfte abgebrochen. Und dabei wollte ich das Buch so gerne mögen! Ich mag den Autor, ich mag die Anhalter-Reihe, ich mag auch den Humor im Buch. Und trotzdem... Vielleicht war es einfach zu wenig Story und zu viele (mehr oder minder komische) abschweifende, weit ausholende Anmerkungen. Immerhin knapp über 200 Seiten habe ich durchgehalten, der erste Teil der Serie wäre damit jetzt schon beendet.
Althought this was an enjoyable read, this is not as good as Douglas Adams' own work, which this purports to complete. The humour is repetitive and predictable. ( )
A valiant attempt to capture the spirit and style of the previous books, especially the first, with plenty of quotes from the Guide, and an, uh, unpredictable story. Wowbagger is a great character More details on Vogon culture - Wish there was more focus on Arthur Dent - Didn't care extremely much for some of the new characters
All in all, a funny book that I enjoyed, but (obviously) not on par with the original series. ( )

For Jackie, Finn, and Seán, who miss me when I am away, but not as much as I miss them. If you want to remind yourselves what I look like, there should be a picture of me at the back of this book.

If you own a copy of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, then one of the last things you would be likely to type into its v-board would be the very same title of that particular Sub-Etha Volume. (Prologue)
