Did I do good? Is it because the humour is too Anglo-tier?

It's the novelisation of a radio series by a non-pro novelist. So no, it's not great. I assume that 18 hours is because your ebook contains the four sequels as well, given that the original is short as fuck.

Ask yourself this: Would I watch an 18 hour long Monty Python skit, let alone just listen to it?

I am not sure of that. It might have been. If it's not that long, I might give it another shot in the future

DA is very English and has a very specific tone, so it might lose a lot in translation. HHGTTG is a quick read. 18 hours sounds like all five books.

sorry if I'd rather read something else instead of spending 19 hours of my life into reading a book I don't find funny
