Play Book Tag discussion

I want to give a shout out to my eldest daughter for bringing home an omnibus of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series shortly before our library closed due to the Cornonavirus. I heard the other two on audiobook, but had never read this one since I thought the second not good enough to carry on. I was sorely mistaken, in the most happy way imaginable. This was so much more fun than the second one and while not everything made me laugh, a number of scenes had me laughing out loud.

It starts 5 years after the last book, but a couple of million years before the first book, and, in a tangled bit of events involving the space-time continuum and various and sundry other things, Arthur Dent becomes embroiled in a race to save the universe from complete destruction. In a plot and galaxy seemingly without reason, this book is FUN and ties together brilliantly. Just writing about it made me realize I'd under-rated it with only 4 stars.
