Beloved, bumbling Detective Dirk Gently returns in this standalone novel from Douglas Adams, the legendary author of one of the most beloved science fiction novels of all time, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
When a check-in desk at London’s Heathrow Airport disappears in a ball of orange flame, the event is said to be an act of God. But which god? wonders holistic detective Dirk Gently. And how is this connected to Dirk’s battle with his cleaning lady over his filthy refrigerator…or to the murder of his latest client? Or are these events just another stretch of coincidences in the life of the world’s most off-kilter private investigator?
Douglas Adams, “one of England’s top exporters of irreverence” (Chicago Tribune), continues the implausible adventures of supersleuth Dirk Gently in his quest to solve the mysteries of the universe.

From Publishers Weekly
"The British author of the Hitchhiker trilogy and other immensely popular lunacies, Adams permits no whiff of common sense to spoil his new novel, which combines fantasy, hilarity and creeping horrors," remarked PW . Here, sleuth Dirk Gently investigates a lawyer and an advertiser who possess the soul of the god Odin. "The plot's ramifications are marvelous, bloody and irresistible."

About the Author
Douglas Adams created all the various and contradictory manifestations of The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy: radio, novels, TV, computer game, stage adaptations, comic book and bath towel. He lectured and broadcast around the world and was a patron of the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund and Save the Rhino International. Douglas Adams was born in Cambridge, UK and lived with his wife and daughter in Islington, London, before moving to Santa Barbara, California, where he died suddenly in 2001. After Douglas died the movie of Hitchhiker moved out of development hell into the clear uplands of production, using much of Douglas' original script and ideas. Douglas shares the writing credit for the movie with Karey Kirkpatrick.

Douglas Adams is not predictable.
By Barry Memory
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is one of my favorite books of all time and is certainly, hands down, my favorite comedy. I decided to give Douglas Adams a try again with the two Dirk Gently books and I'm glad I did. These two books are right up there with some of the best literature ever. My only problem is that Douglas Adams is not alive to write more incredible books.

like a lot of nerdy people in their late 30s
By Brigid Keely
I was describing the Dirk Gently books to a friend and emphasized that they didn't rely on supernatural things and then had to back track since the first book involves time travel and aliens and this book involves literal acts of god(s). The books are so grounded in the real, in specific places and times, and have such ordinary and well rounded characters that the time travel and aliens and gods and interdimensional travel and everything else just seems normal. Inconvenient but normal. So flight delays, massive eagles swooping down on people, pizza places that refuse to deliver, demonic contracts, defective telephone lines, missing cats, and men channeling dustin hoffman all seem on the same level. It's a tremendous bit of skillful writing that many other authors and wannabe authors imitate poorly.
For me, like a lot of nerdy people in their late 30s, reading a Douglas Adams book is like slipping into your favorite pair of pajamas. It's a cozy comfortable familiar fit you can relax into. For most of us we haven't actually READ Adams in years. The Gently books hold up very well. They're witty without being cloying or "wacky" and Adams manages to write a book that doesn't center a confused, passive, out of his depths but gamely going along with it male character. Instead we have Kate Schecter, a reporter who's foiled in her attempt to join (or just miss) her emotionally and physically absent boyfriend. She takes an active role in investigating what's going on. We also have Dirk Gently, the holistic investigator, whose philosophy that all things are interconnected leads him down some very interesting (but, alas, rarely lucrative) paths. He, also, takes an active role in investigating what's going on, including negotiation with gods and advertising executives. It's a nice change of pace. The plot also feels less like a recycled Doctor Who script and more original.
One could probably jump right into this book without having read the previous, but "Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency" is very worth reading in its own right.
It's great when a cherished book holds up over the years.
I wish the tv shows were better.

Irreverent and attention grabbing.
By Alexander Tosspot
I'd read the first Dirk Gently novel quite a few years ago, and I'm not sure why it's taken me until just now to pick up the second one. But now that I have, I'm glad I did.
In a weird way, this novel is American Gods done right. That was a novel in which I loved the premise, but felt very let down by how the story eventually developed and concluded. But in The Long Dark Tea-time of the Soul, I think it took a similar premise, but crafted a more grounded, but better executed story from it.
Plus the writing style of Douglas Adams has always delivered. Even in his lesser quality works, his style shines through, and does elevate material to a higher quality. Here, everything comes together in a very entertaining package.
Pacing is fairly quick, and the story keeps moving. What this means is that it's a pretty mean and lean read without any real filler in it. But it also gets all the information that it needs to to the reader. Some of the detail or scene descriptors might go a little long in spots, but that's entirely a Douglas Adams stylistic choice, and it's to the benefit of the novel, rather than a detriment.
On a personal note, this also marks the last bit of writing material available for me to read out of Douglas Adams back catalogue, which is a shame. And I do wish he had done more with the Dirk Gently series. Aside from this and the first book, there's a fractured and half completed third novel, which he was in the process of retrofitting into another Hitchhiker's Guide book before he died. But I will just have to appreciate what's there.
But yeah, a definite recommend from me. Especially if you are a fan, and somehow have managed to avoid reading this. It's a fun read from start to finish, with some quite clever parts to it.
