Very interesting and entertaining. Simon Jones was great, and the parts where he was reading about what Douglas Adams said about him made me laugh out loud. As a big fan of the original radio series, I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

I’ve been a fan of Adams since I was young and first got a chance to hear the radio broadcasts. I’ve read the books, seen the series, and watched the movie. This really put everything in a new context and made me appreciate everything more.

Awesome book for fans
