I find Adams relentlessly cynical. Not in his subject matter but in his utter contempt for his readers which becomes more and more obvious as the series progresses.
I like the first three books of Rankin's ever-expanding Brentford Trilogy. The fourth one was OK but since then it has been a serious case of diminishing returns. His other books I find just plain silly.
