Not a BAD book, but not my first choice, Jan 5 2001
By Daniel J. Fawcett - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Planetfall (Paperback)
For a book based on a computer game, this is actually a decent book. But, it is not what I was hoping for. When I read the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, I found a terrific and unexpected escape from reality. And this book touted itself as the Next Hitchhiker's Guide. It was far from that. Instead, it was a rather self-conscious immitation of Douglas Adams. It was rather flat, with few actual belly-laughs, and just one or two giggles throughout.Still, it is a light, quick read, and it is a good book for a rainy, lazy Saturday when you have nothing else to do.
But read Douglas Adams first.

Dreadful, July 20 2002
By Benjamin Kyle Henderson - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Planetfall (Paperback)
Perhaps you remember the Infocom game, its delightful humor, its mystery-filled world. If you happen to see this book at a used bookstore, your fond memories of the game may deceive you into picking it up.Please, save yourself from pain and suffering.
As to humor, there is none. As to juvenile and crude references, there are plenty. If this sort of thing is your cup of tea, save yourself the money and hang out on an elementary school playground during recess. This book has the distinction of being one of the two books I've actually stopped reading before the end, and I've suffered through a lot of horrid literature.
At that used bookstore, I might advise you to run and run fast, but on consideration perhaps it might be best to hide it between the bookshelf and the wall to help your fellow man.
Listmania!
