Eoin Colfer to write new Hitchhiker's Guide book.

Okay, I was not a fan of how the series ended (and oh yeah—spoilers for that in article). But this? NO. Just...no.

If it's any consolation - I believe that he's been told he doesn't have to try and imitate Adams' style (like Sebastian Faulks writing as Ian Fleming on the latest Bond novel).

Also - I think it's interesting that the article doesn't point out that it was Adams' widow that wanted a sequel done in the first place and that Eoin Colfer was asked to do it. Not the other way round.

I remain cautiously optimistic. Which is, well, an unpopular opinion, really.
