(+) Epic tales, detailed yet not boring, great characters and substained plots (-) Not at the moment, though some might not like the style and small print
Advantages: Loses a rainy day Disadvantages: If read at bedtime be prepared to have to finish it.
...After reading the first book in the series I had to continue. Not only did this book equal, but in my view surpassed, Hitchhikers Guide. With Adams usual descriptive writing I found myself engrossed from cover to cover (and a few mornings I think the propped open eyes may have been visible). A must read for all Adams fans - do it right now!!!
I myself will be rushing out to buy the next one in the series to see if it gets even better, although I do find that hard to believe....

Advantages: Fun and interesting Disadvantages: Heavy on reader emails
...Everybody wonders how they can best play tricks on their workmates, and thanks to the Joy of Work's magnificent office pranks chapter, we now have dozens of fun pranks to use. Scott Adams is witty and sarcastic as usual, and it is great to read. However, I felt that Adams had not put his usual effort into this book as he had with the Dilbert Principle and Dilbert Future. He has actually written very little (most of the pranks are reader's emails) - although what he has contributed is outstanding, especially the section on his take on what makes good humour. A fun book....
