Where’s the rest of the book

There wasn’t one main conflict—im guessing it’s an unfinished book so you’ll read the sequel. It’s kinda humorous, but not really funny, so I may. But I won’t if it does the same thing.

3.5⭐️ This book is like the screwiest of screwball comedies, set in space and complete with a robot that has the personality of Eeyore. There really isn’t much plot or character development but the writing is so hilarious and full of little brain tickles that I didn’t really mind.

"Earth: Mostly Harmless"

The Earth is destroyed and Ford escapes just in time with his friend Arthur. They encounter many kinds of adventures and life-threatening situations. Arthur also along the way learns more about the Universe and Earth. 

From the very first page I was captivated by the author's humour and satire and continued to be so until the end of the book. All the characters were very interesting and quirky. We have, for example, Ford who does not understand sarcasm which makes his interactions with Arthur very enjoyable. There were also some things that were so ridiculously funny that I laughed out loud and at the same time it makes one think about life. 

Definitely a nice book which is also easy to read, even for readers who normally don't read science fiction.
