New Hitchhikers Book: And Another Thing

[BarthelloSylph]

Not sure if this has been discussed around here, but apparently some dude wrote a sequel to the Hitchhiker's Trilogy. Wanted to see if anyone has read it. I'm not sure someone can pull off Adams' style but I'll probably read it anyways.

I like the movies doubt I would read any of the books. Especially if it was written by "some dude".

Some dude also wrote a sequel to the events of FFVII. And another dude wrote an alternative universe involving Buffy the Vampire Slayer characters. Anyone read those, yet?

[Vandole]

some dude also wrote the bible. why aren't you reading this new version of hitchikers yet?

Some dude = the guy that wrote the Artemis Fowl books. Haven't read them so dunno if this was a good decision or not. (usually not)

His name is Eoin Colfer. How would one pronouce Eoin?

I'm going to re-read the Hitchhiker's series. Well, re-listen on audiobook. Then read (listen to) this one.

Might be good.

Hitchhikers was probably, without question, one of the most entertaining reads I've ever had. You're a HUGE faggot if you just watch the movies.

Movie=Garbage, Books=Hilarious

I loathed the movie. But the book series is probably my favourite... Adams just has a way to keep you laughing and engaged.

Who's your favourite? Douglas Adams or Terry Pratchett?

Picked it up last night, and got through the first 2 chapters before I needed sleep. So far it seems pretty good. The styles are similar, but definitely not the same. The new book also has a slightly more mature feeling to it, and definitely more swearing. So far I am liking it, especially since I hated the ending to Mostly Harmless.
