I'm ASHAMED to say I've never read any Adams! My library does not carry "A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy," and I feel that's where I should start.

"I can't pick a favorite" because I only read Hitchhiker. It's was okay.

by the way the tv one sucks, it gives the depth of the book a bad name.

I liked them all, but I picked the "Hitchhikers" book as my fave. I didn't hear that he died until just now. That's too bad. I really liked his work. Now I guess there won't be any more unless they start dredging up stuff he didn't already publish.

I didn't know he co-wrote Dr. Snuggles! I loved that show when I was little... :) My favourite book of his is 'Long Dark Teatime of the Soul'.
