So like hitchhikers guide?

[–] Cypher@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Sadly I've never gotten around to reading Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy however what I have heard is good.

I'm a big fan of the satire in 40k which has novels spanning several genres, so there's almost always a fresh type of novel to dig into, even if they are the equivalent of cheap romance novels but for nerds

I highly suggest you give hitchhiker's guide the time. Not sure if you've read any Terry Pratchett, but IMO Douglas Adams is on another level (and Pratchett is pretty good himself). I ended up reading all his books in like two sittings once I started.

If you haven't heard the original radio drama, i highly recommend. I actually prefer it to the books now. It's on archive.org.
