Review: I really liked this book because it was funny and almost perfect. However, just one thing made it not get a perfect. That was the improbability drive had a paradox. If the improbability drive made every thing improbable, then that would be probable and all of the now probable stuff would become improbable again. Then all of the improbable stuff would become probable, and the loop just goes on and on.
Favorite quotation: ""You know," said Arthur, "it's at times like this, when I'm trapped in a Vogon airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and am about to die from asphyxiation in deep space, that I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I was young." "Why, what did she tell you?" "I don't know, I didn't listen.""
