i didn't like the fifth one much either, though that may just be because it takes the sad but funny acceleration/power creep of stupidly impossible technology like bistromath, time travel, and (AI assisted!) multiverse time travel to its conclusion, it all stops feeling special, or because the only thing all this does to problems of capitalism (the cathedral of chalesm) and other human problems is make it more absurd (for comedic effect). idk i still left out like more than half the reason further books in the series feel more depressing than earlier ones, as I don't know it. Why is it a trilogy?
The fifth one was written while Douglas Adams was super depressed, so yeah, it's a bit more grim than the others.
The initial trilogy were written after the radio show which was itself written on the fly, hence the continuous cliffhangers and deus-ex-machina turns of fate.
Congratulations, you successfully showed everyone you are unable to comprehend things most middle school children understand and also failed at basic grammar while doing so. Well done!
sorry, did middle schoolers get taught the earth spins twice a day? 3 times? 17 times? or maybe they get taught that the time taken for it to spin once is actually called the sidereal day and not the synodic day?
if you want to measure how fast things spin, use angular velocity. your car engine goes at several thousand rpm, not several thousand kilometers per hour. if you were standing at the poles, you would have zero linear velocity. does this mean the earth doesn't spin?
ok maybe you were talking about the time the earth takes to go around the sun. yes that takes a year.
