Best Review on Mostly Harmless Hitchhikers Trilogy Douglas
Yes, the ending is rather grim. However, all I could do was smile and think about how wrong it felt... but in a good way. There was a huge sense of irony that I felt a little silly at not seeing a mile away. Also, every loose end I can think of has been tied off.
This story isn't my favorite of the trilogy, but it is the one with, in my opinion, the best ending. I read a lot of books, and no ending has ever stayed in my head so well. Plus, if you're a Ford fan like I am, there's a lot of him in this book. I'm eager to hear the radio dramatization of it.
While this last book in the Hitchhiker's series doesn't exactly end on a high note, I loved it. It seemed as though Douglas Adams was getting a little tired of the series and finished it, but even he said he wasn't satisfied with the ending and would rewrite it... and there was the possibility of a sixth book in the trilogy. I would have loved that, but I'm just as happy with this ending. No book I've ever read, as I've said, has an ending that I can remember so well.
How many books are in the series in total? Isn't there spin-offs and other stuff? I just want a list of all the books, please.
BalasHapusNo cracks about fifth book in a trilogy. If you've read any of them you'd understand that I actually can count.
BalasHapusWhat is the last book in this series? I always thought it was The Salmon of Doubt, but after reading the reviews I'm guessing it's Mostly Harmless as The Salmon of Doubt is about a different person (not Arthur Dent). Thank you :)
BalasHapuslike in the story the Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy? chapter 25 i think... in the second book ( or page: 344, if you got the Hitchhikers guide to the Galaxy, Trilogy of four, by Douglas Adams). The restaurant at the end of the universe. (great book) (all of them)
