I was in the mood for some Douglas Adams, so I was listening to So Long and Thanks for All the Fish read by the author. I never thought very highly of the later two Hitchhiker's books, and as a result, I have only read them once. After finding a hard cover copy of And Another Thing... in my local B&N's bargan bin for next to nothing, I decided it was time to give my lesser favored installments of the "trilogy" another visit.

After all was said and done, I made it five pages or so into And Another Thing... until I just couldn't cringe anymore. Eoin Colfer tries really hard to imitate Adams and it shows, reading like someone doing a really bad impression of Adams for at least the first five pages, whether or not the torture continues beyond that point I have no intention of finding out.
