Thirty years of celebrating the comic genius of Douglas Adams...
On 12 October 1979, the most remarkable book ever to come out of the great publishing corporations of Ursa Minor (and Earth) was made available to humanity – The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
It's an ordinary Thursday lunchtime for Arthur Dent until his house gets demolished. The Earth follows shortly afterwards to make way for a new hyperspace bypass and his best friend has just announced that he's an alien. At this moment, they're hurtling through space with nothing but their towels and an innocuous-looking book inscribed with the big, friendly words: DON'T PANIC.
The weekend has only just begun...
Volume one in the trilogy of five.
Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy
This book is quirky, witty and down-right hilarious. Douglas Adams proves why he is one of the most talented authors in the fantasy genre. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good dose of comedy and adventure. Reviewed by 01jl
