First time through this series in over twenty years. This is probably my second favorite in the series, after the first book (obviously!). Having a focus on Arthur, with Zaphod absent, is a huge plus here. 

Martin Freeman again does a fabulous job reading the audiobook.

The worst book in the series in my opinion. Nothing really happens in this book other than Arthur getting a random love interest.

Cuarta parte de la saga de la Guía del autoestopista galáctico y un gran cambio, ya que la mayoría de personajes a los que ya teníamos cariño no salen o apenas aparecen por estas páginas... aunque en el propio prólogo te decían que esta era la historia de una chica que estaba en la Tierra antes de ser destruida.

La historia de Arthur y Fenchurch me ha resultado bastante menos animada que el resto de historias que han aparecido por la saga. Además siento sinceramente que Trillian no se haya podido desarrollar más en este libro, pues era la única mujer entre los personajes principales.

Tengo curiosidad por saber cómo acaba la saga, aunque tomaré un descanso tras la lectura de este porque no me ha gustando tanto como los tres previos. He echado en falta el humor y la acción que parecían más presentes en los anteriores.
