Customer Reviews
Big fan of Adams, but this book ...
Rating: 
I am a big fan of Dougles Adams books, at least in general.
But this book is, at best, only marginally funny. Others have explored this topic, and with better results.
The problem here is that Adams tries to make funny sounding words for things that don't have a name (like that little twist between link sausages), but constrains himself to using the names of small cities and towns from around the world. Occasionally, he hits a home run, but most of the words are strike outs.
Disapointed.
PS the 'name' for hte link between sausages is kerry. Why, I don't know, and I have no idea why some think this is humorous.
glorious
Rating: 
This book was superb, anyone who is a fan of Adams will appreciate it's wit, it's ingenuity, and it's intense sarcasm. Absolutely necessary to complete you Douglas Adams collection.
