About this listen
Following the smash-hit sci-fi comedy The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe is the second part in Douglas Adams' multi media phenomenon and cult classic series, read by Martin Freeman.
If you've done six impossible things this morning, why not round it off with breakfast at Milliways, the Restaurant at the end of the Universe?
Which is exactly what the crew of the Heart of Gold plan to do. There's just the small matter of escaping the Vogans, avoiding being taken to the most totally evil world in the Galaxy and teaching a spaceship how to make a proper cup of tea.
And did anyone actually make a reservation?
Follow Arthur Dent's galactic (mis)adventures in the rest of the trilogy with five parts: Life, the Universe and Everything, So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish, and Mostly Harmless.

Martin Freeman convert
I wasn't sure about Martin Freeman narrating, as I don't really like his acting (and because I listened to Stephen Fry's delicious narration of The Hitchhiker's Guide) but he's actually really really good! I enjoyed it immensely! Looking for other books he's narrated now :-)
In terms of story - this is a classic. If you liked the Hitchhiker's Guide then you know what to expect.

Just as good as the first.
Excellent work from Douglas Adams once again. Martin Freeman is an excellent narrator, whos voices give the characters personality and life.

Great, if it is your cup of tea
The intricate and obscure story continues. The second book may be less grabbing than the first but if this is your thing you will find this an engaging listen. The voice actor maintains the pace of the story well thought.

Brilliant reading!
Excellent book, done full justice by Martin's fabulous voice effects! I forgot I was listening to just one person, it sounds more like a full cast of voices! Amazing performance!

Martin Freeman can’t compare to Stephen Fry
Of course a fantastic story, but I wish Stephen Fry was narrating! Martin Freeman is terrible in comparison.

Brilliant
Martin Freeman does an excellent job with this classic Douglas Adams work. Brought back memories of when I first read it. It's just as funny now as it was in the 80s.

Not as good as first book
Didn't live up to expectation from first book but was still a good listen and will continue the series.
