FROM THE CRITICS
Gale Research
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, as well as its sequels,The Restaurant at the End of the Universe; Life, the Universe and Everything; So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish; and Mostly Harmless, is "inspired lunacy that leaves hardly a science fictional cliche alive," as Washington Post Book World contributor Lisa Tuttle describes it.

This unabridged reading of his science fiction satire, HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY, Douglas Adams catches the reader's interest with a vocal style that is a cross between Jack Benny's and W.C. Fields's. The performance is very fast paced and full of pleasure. B.P. ﾽAudioFile, Portland, Maine
