Heck, the books were corny, but funny as all get out. I was just talking about the books with my wife last night as she has not read them. We have them on order from the library, I am looking forward to reading the first three again, but this time out loud to my baby girl. I wonder what will come of it. hehe

Take care

It will be hard to beat the old BBC version, both radio and TV...now, who will be the voice of the book?  And who will be Zaphod Beeblebrox (he's just this guy, you know)...and can they make Marvin even more depressing

If you need to reread it, get the complete series all in one book..B&N usually has it on sale
