Most people miss that Douglas Adams was a huge fan of P.G. Wodehouse and would channel his writing style.   Wodehouse just had a damn funny way of
describing things as an example:

â€oeShe had a voice like a troop of cavalry crossing a tin bridge.†vs "They hung in the air exactly the same way that bricks don't."

If this guy can't channel Wodehouse he has no business writing Hitchhikers.

If anybody I would have rather seen Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaimen write it but there too many reasons that wouldn't have happened.
