In short, then, I had every intention of listening to the complete series but then was convinced by the narrator not to. After listening to the voice and then seeing the producer's name, it's a wonder he didn't prevent this bad portrayal. It is because the narrator's Zaphod is jarringly stereotypical. Trust me, you will be cursing Douglas Adams for every moment he decided to include Zaphod in the book, and not because Zaphod is annoying. It is the exact opposite of the Hitchiker s Guide voice and 100 times more annoying. Granted, it's a different actor, but that's where the problem is: Zaphod Beeblebrox. The voice acting is, in my opinion, atrocious. If you expect the same quality in subsequent books.well, you're in for a shock. First off, if you've listened to the Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy by downloading it from Audible, then you were probably pleased with the voice acting.
