### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    A great start--but unfortunately not finished
  

*by C***K on Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2020*

The first book in what promised to be a fantastic series, stands on its own as a fine example of what a good writer Douglas Adams was. It's plotting and characters are memorable, and there are moments that are laugh-out-loud funny. The problem is not with this first book. It's a more mature piece of writing than Hitchhiker was, and more cohesively done--but it really didn't have as good a follow-up.If you want to see anything that even resembles the two television series that are available, you won't find it in this book. Whoever produced those apparently only read the jacket blurbs and not the actual novels. Which is too bad. Because the books ARE better than both British-made and American-made films. The books will startle you by how utterly divorced they are from both.They did Adams a real disservice by doing that, but don't miss this novel because it isn't like the movie. This one is very, very good.

    Brilliant..nothing much else to say really!
  

*by M***D on Reviewed in the United States on June 16, 2013*

I love all of Douglas Adam's books so it will come as no surprise I enjoyed this one too. As with all his other novels, the central character in this one is a bit of a wacky, eccentric sort who has a few gifts and has decided to play detective in order to capitalize on the gullability of his clients.I just loved reading this book and the other "Dark Tea- time Of the Soul". They are just great, easy to read, funny, enjoyable and light fun reads that make me wish so much that Douglas Adam's had remained alive longer so we could have had even more pleasure enjoying his unique way of constructing a good yarn.I wont go into the plot here, many paople know this book backwards as do I. I have read it a multitude of times over the years and intend to carry on doing so every couple of years.Just enjoy it, it is an utterly unique style of book, juts like all the others in the Hitch-Hikers series. Thanks for reading my review!!

    Brilliant cast, great story
  

*by Z***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2011*

Douglas Adams' brilliant detective novel Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective agency is brought to life in the same spirit as his Hitch Hiker's Guide series.However where with HHG we have a radio series transformed into a novel, in Dirk Gently we have the opposite. It's an entertaining romp using borrowed plot points from the unfinished Doctor Who story "Shada". Combining Time Travel, murder, possesion, and the interconnectedness of all things the novel and audio play create an enjoyable story to read and/or listen too.I found this production actually easier to sit through then the book itself. Having been streamlined and reaaranged a bit to better fit the format of an audio drama. The cast is brilliant, special praise for Billy Boyd. A choice for Richard Mcduff I wouldn't have expected. I guess in my head he sounded different when I first read the book, but Billy Boyd takes the character well beyond anything I imagined.Great overall if you can find a copy.
