Which series of Science Fiction books do like the best?
This is part five of the polls to find the most favored series.
We are looking at a series of at least two or three books.
There are many series out there and I could only list a few.
I must admit that I have not read many of these. Especially non-English writers’ series.
If you have others, not listed please put them in comments. I will add them to later polls.
I will publish the results after the poll closes.

All I saw was Hitchhiker's Guide.
Did you get a chance to read it, too? I thought the book was much better than the movie.
I've read all five. Killer books.
I recall much youthful excitement for the movie only to end up walking out of the theater.
(I see how my first comment could be misinterpreted: I meant, all that I saw when I opened your poll was that you had Hitchhiker's Guide on there. I voted without needing to see any of the other results.)
It was a good series, wasn’t it? When I saw the movie I was really disappointed. I guess the printed word and your own imagination is much better than a director’s vision of what something should look like.
I've been reading it to my kids, but they aren't digging it as much as I expected. Perhaps they are still a little young.
I think that some of the humor in the books is aimed at adults and people who understand the world a bit better than kids. I had the same experience when reading LOTR to my kids when they were young. They wanted to skip over some of the best parts because of lack of action.
I just love it that the choices don’t let you use the text altering protocols. You can do it in the commentary but not the choices. @k00b. You can’t get a preview of the choices, either.
