Totally. I love the first 3, but as they go on now, they just get dumb.Phenylethylamine wrote: I liked the first few, but the newest one... they've become complete Mary Sues. Every time something bad happens, they just miraculously develop a new power. Plus, I hate it when authors leave a totally pointless cliffhanger just so they can sell a sequel, which is what he did with this one.
It's kind of sad, considering how great the first few were.
- 1st The first one is The Angel Experiment. Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports is the third, I think that's the one you're thinking of. The second is School's Out - Forever and the fourth and fifth are sucky.x_SOninja_x wrote:What is the first one called?
It's not saving the world, is it?
Douglas Adams was a genius. His books are the best you will ever read (at least in their genre- which I guess would be sci-fi comedy- but in my opinion, overall). When you're done with the Hitchhiker books, I recommend Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, which is also excellent.Arthur wrote:yeah i didn't really like the 4th and 5th maximum ride books either. right now i'm reading life, the universe, and everything by douglas adams. i love the hitchhiker books so far. they're so random but hilarious at the same time. i think it's going to be my favorite 5 book trilogy.
