Title: Entirely Awful
Review: I loved the first four books of the 'trilogy', but was absolutely floored by how awful this book is. I didn't just loathe the unbelievably bleak ending, the entire thing was completely unfunny from start to finish. At the end I had no idea why I had just wasted my time on this pile of excrement laughingly called a '5th book' of one of my favorite series of all time. The book never elicited anything more than a mild chuckle, if that, and hours of frustration at how annoying Random is and watching a funny author waste his talent. This book is a HUGE disappointment and a waste of ink. I wish Adams had never bothered publishing this crap, just scrapped it and started over with something actually funny.I haven't read Book 6, but I'm curious as to whether the new guy can capture the tone of the GOOD Hitchhiker's books and avoid the tone of this one. Avoid this book like it's the plague.
