Incidental and subjective opinion; but I do think that The Restaurant at the End of The Universe is the best book in the series.
The commentary is deeper, the jokes are funnier and the story arc feels a lot less random whilst still being surreal. The scenes at the end of the book with the Golfrinchans is a masterclass in humourous writing with a truly nasty vein of bleakness.
It also features the ultimate question, of course.
- albrewer 5y agoThe sapient cow that wants nothing more than to be eaten has stuck with me since the very first time I read it. It's like it was targeted right at militant vegans before there were militant vegans.
- ErrantX 5y agoThat whole piece is so Adams. It's a complete subplot, and the main plot happens interweaved and at the same time. Totally ridiculous. And I love how on the face its kinda stupid but then makes you think a bit about privilege... Wonderful.
