@armandoFemat As a fan I often tell people that Dirk Gently might actually be better than The Guide 🤔 Now I will go sit in the corner and wait for the angry comments... 😁

Anyway, to enjoy Dirk Gently start with the books, then the UK tv series, then the two graphic novels that connects it to the US series.

Comic from Unshelved about a boy asking librarian about what books he can check out and the librarian telling him he can check out any book. The teacher says it's above the child's reading level and they have a policy. The librarian replies he loves the sound of a breaking policy breaking.

So, putting the book down where you finish reading it until it organically evolves into a pile of books doesn't count as "arranging"? Rude! 😜😂

Review by crig Dec 16, 2025

Challenging and compelling
"If you are looking for something different from the usual inkitt offerings, try this. If you are looking for something with a very original storyline, indeed, quite unlike anything else you might have read, try this.
As it is written in a very readable style, what are you waiting for?
Style Give it a go.

Someone should make a virtual tickler for e-books, otherwise it's discrimination 😜😂

Too many novels is definitely how I want to go, but I'm probably more likely to suffer from a stong bout of drawing-room anguish 😜😂

What litterature is it when the characters are having affairs and suffering, the author is having an affair and suffering, the reader is having an affair and suffering 🤔 😂

Four panel meme with two pictures.

First a woman in a carrige.
Russian lit: The characters are suffering, the author is suffering, the reader is suffering.

Second a picture of a fancy people dancing in a ballroom.
French lit: The characters are having an affair, the author is having an affair, the reader is having an affair.
