The story of Troy speaks to all of us - the kidnapping of Helen, a queen celebrated for her beauty, sees the Greeks launch a thousand ships against the city of Troy, to which they will lay siege for 10 whole and very bloody years. It is Zeus, the king of the gods, who triggers the war when he asks the Trojan prince Paris to judge the fairest goddess of them all. Aphrodite bribes Paris with the heart of Helen, wife of King Menelaus of the Greeks, and naturally, nature takes its course.

Which is exactly what the crew of the Heart of Gold plan to do. There’s just the small matter of escaping the Vogons, avoiding being taken to the most totally evil world in the Galaxy and teaching a space ship how to make a proper cup of tea.

Great story
Loved Martin Freeman’s narrating, and this story is a winner. But it was a little jarring to go from Stephen Fry (my all time fav narrator) to Martin Freeman. Especially since Zaphod suddenly has a Jersey accent which is annoying at first but you get used to it. Freeman still does a top job.

Not as good as the first book
Both the story and the narration aren’t as good as the first book (with Stephen Fry’s narration). Stephen played into the quirky weirdness of the book, by making the character voices and the parts of the story that he emphasised, equally as wacky as the plot! Martin narrates this as if this was a normal story, not playing up the wacky elements, just merely commenting and acknowledging them. I really love Martin Freeman as an actor (comedic or otherwise), but as a voice actor for books I personally think his style is better suited to less quirky stories. As for the plot of this book, I found it to have bigger gaps between the funny wacky bits, which made it less funny and a bit less interesting. I’m not sure whether or not I’ll keep this audiobook or return it, since it wasn’t as enjoyable as the first one, but is needed if I wish to relisten to the full series again.

It's a fun book. Very clear though that women in this series are under utilized. They're basically cardboard cut outs and no personality. it might be a problem of the books from this time. Aside from that, this is really well-written and I enjoyed a break from Steven Fry's voice for the sequel (mostly kidding). Fry does a WAY better job than the narrator in this version.

Excellent book ruined by lacklustre narration
After Stephen Fry's excellent narration of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, the swap to Martin Freeman for this second book was a big disappointment.
Freeman's inflection is at times so off that I wondered whether this was his first ever read through, and his narration is lacklustre and monotonous enough that it's often hard to tell where the narration ends and Marvin the Paranoid Android's speech begins. Oh, Zaphod Beeblebrox suddenly has a bizarre parody of an Italian American mobster accent.
Adams' writing is of course still excellent, but I struggled to finish this audiobook because of the poor narration and likely shan't bother purchasing the rest.

Great book, narrator made me scream
What did you like best about The Restaurant at the End of the Universe? What did you like least?
Like all the 'Hitchhikers' books, this is great. But Martin Freeman's voice when doing the characters drove me crazy. When he was speaking as Zaphod's older ghost relative, the screeching went on and on, and made me give up listening for a while - in the end, I could only continue by fast-forwarding.
It's hard to do good narration while also doing different voices for characters. Freeman's voice is good as a normal story-teller. But someone should've stopped him, cos he made me hate this audio book.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Terrible, screechy voice characters

Ruined by narrator
This superb piece of humouronus science fiction written in the wonderful, inimitable manner of Douglas Adams is absolutely destroyed by the bland, lack lustre efforts of Martin Freeman who might as well be reading the telephone directory as this book. His narration lacks commitment, vigour and enthusiasm; to say nothing of the feeble efforts made to distinguish characters by voice tone and inflection. Will be paying particular attention when purchasing in future. Mr Freeman will himself be by-passed.

I rarely find a book that can send me into fits of laughter on public transport but The Restaurant at the End of the Universe had me in hysterics from start to finish. The wonderfully British humor and the random spiraling tangents will keep any well respected gentlemen giggling throughout the duration of the book.

Out there...in the Universe...exists a great book.
A fantastic continuation to the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. This story is full of British humour and entertainment. Arthur Dent continues to explore the universe accompanied by his trusty towel, and on the way discovers new places, creatures and witnesses things out of this world.
A perfect book to enjoy and loose yourself for hours.
Martin Freeman is a man of many talents. His narration is of the highest standard. His steady voice lets you experience and imagine the events in the story, as the world passes by. Overall, it’s a perfect listen.

Not as good as HHGTTG
Considering that I wished HHGTTG would never end, I found myself wishing away most of the tedious minutes of The Restaurant...Characters I didn't much care for, a story that never seemed to be going anywhere, and attempts at humour which all too often fell flat. Martin Freeman's narration was amusing, but not a patch on Stephen Fry's Hitchhiker's Guide. Not sure if I will bother with the next in the series, in case this ship is on a downward trajectory. .

You don't need to be a big Sci- Fi fan to enjoy this series! Douglas Adams is the champion of humour and randomness! Although, you may feel insignificant, or jealous of the adventures of Arthur Dent as he travels around the universe with Ford, Trillion and Beeblebrox, he takes you with him to all the different places beyond your imagination.
