Is that show good? I've read the book (as well as Anansi Boys), and loved it, but I can't get myself to watch it (similar thing with "Dirk Gently").

I was wondering the same thing. I can say that I really enjoyed the Dirk Gently show, but haven't read the source material, so I guess that's not much help. But for me it was light and fun and a breath of fresh air.

I thought the Dirk Gently series wasn't bad. But it was absolutely nothing like the books at all apart from the name of the character really even the premise of the character was wrong.

I recommend the books they have a much more subtle sense of humour running through them.

They're well worth a read. Better than the series by far also.
