I just re-read it as a (middle age :S) adult – and while it’s hardly an underrated book, it’s fucking amazing and not sufficiently appreciated beyond being a fantastically fun book for a teenage brain to read. Whoever hasn’t read it since they were in high school or hasn’t read it, really should pick it up.
I’ve re-read it many times, along with re-listening to the radio series, the LPs, re-watching the TV series, I can even appreciate the feature film, despite it being the least of the versions. I dearly love Douglas Adams.
The only thing I haven’t done in many, many years is play the INFOCOM game. Too devious.
