The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

Too much random dialogue and shoegazing – which is not to say that the rambling dialogue and shoegazing wasn't enjoyable, simply that there was too much of it.

The best part of this book was Terry Jones' foreword. It really gives the reader a different platform from which to view this book and its flights of absurdity between short speculative sci-fi diary entries, like the neurotic elevator or the time-oscillating restaurant. Now they were dead cool. And as Terry Jones says: no one reads Doug for his characters. Has Trillian ever done anything at all yet?
