    This post makes me wonder now if i picked up a book by the wrong Rankin *puzzled* someone recommended a Rankin to me as an alternative to Douglas Adams ... i thought it was Ian Rankin ... but seeing Robert Rankin I'm wondering if I remembered the name wrong.

    So, Roffa, is it anything like Douglas Adams work?

    Yes, Robert Rankin is much closer to Douglas Adams or even Terry Pratchett than Ian Rankin's gritty tales of murder and skullduggery in Edinburgh. Hope this helps.
