Synopsis

In one complete volume, here are the five classic novels from Douglas Adams's beloved Hitchhiker series. Now celebrating the pivotal 42nd anniversary of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, soon to be a Hulu original series! The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy ( Nominated as one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read ) Seconds before the Earth is demolished for a galactic freeway, Arthur Dent is saved by Ford Prefect, a researcher for the revised Guide . Together they stick out their thumbs to the stars and begin a wild journey through time and space. The Restaurant at the End of the Universe The moment before annihilation at the hands of warmongers is a curious time to crave tea. It could only happen to the cosmically displaced Arthur Dent and his comrades as they hurtle across the galaxy in a desperate search for a place to eat. Life, the Universe and Everything The unhappy inhabitants of planet Krikkit are sick of looking at the night sky- so they plan to destroy it. The universe, that is. Now only five individuals can avert Armageddon: mild-mannered Arthur Dent and his stalwart crew. So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish Back on Earth, Arthur Dent is ready to believe that the past eight years were all just a figment of his stressed-out imagination. But a gift-wrapped fishbowl with a cryptic inscription thrusts him back to reality. So to speak. Mostly Harmless Just when Arthur Dent makes the terrible mistake of starting to enjoy life, all hell breaks loose. Can he save the Earth from total obliteration? Can he save the Guide from a hostile alien takeover? Can he save his daughter from herself? Includes the bonus story "Young Zaphod Plays It Safe" "With droll wit, a keen eye for detail and heavy doses of insight . . . Adams makes us laugh until we cry."-- San Diego Union-Tribune "Lively, sharply satirical, brilliantly written . . . ranks with the best set pieces in Mark Twain."-- The Atlantic, In one complete volume, here are the five classic novels from Douglas Adams's beloved Hitchhiker series.

So Long, and Thanks for All the Laughs -- For Adams -- By Sabadino Parker
The irony of Douglas Adams’s death would not have slipped past the famed comedic writer. He died Friday, May 11, at his home in Santa Barbara, Calif., from a heart attack while working out at a gym. The circumstances of his passing read like a scene from one of his many, hysterical novels, although clearly the loss of such a magnificently cunning mind elicits not the slightest chuckle. He was only 49. Douglas Noel Adams was born in Cambridge, England, in 1952. The son of a theology student and a nurse, Adams attended St John’s College of Cambridge University, the alma mater of many other comedic geniuses, including John Cleese, Dudley Moore, Graham Chapman, and Peter Cook. There he began collaborating with folks who would go on to create Not the Nine O’Clock News and Monty Python’s Flying ... The irony of Douglas Adams’s death would not have slipped past the famed comedic writer. He died Friday, May 11, at his home in Santa Barbara, Calif., from a heart attack while working out at a gym. The circumstances of his passing read like a scene from one of his many, hysterical novels, although clearly the loss of such a magnificently cunning mind elicits not the slightest chuckle. He was only 49. Douglas Noel Adams was born in Cambridge, England, in 1952. The son of a theology student and a nurse, Adams attended St John’s College of Cambridge University, the alma mater of many other comedic geniuses, including John Cleese, Dudley Moore, Graham Chapman, and Peter Cook. There he began collaborating with folks who would go on to create Not the Nine O’Clock News and Monty Python’s Flying Circus (for which he helped pen a few season-four sketches). After graduation, he tried his hand at writing for television, working on the now-classic Dr Who series. After running into some financial difficulty, he began working as a bodyguard for an Arabian royal family. Not as fulfilling a vocation, certainly, which is why he spent his off-hours penning the tale that would make him famous. The tale in question, and the creation Adams is perhaps best known for, is The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, a story which originally started as a BBC radio series in 1978. It later was released as a book and then made into a BBC television miniseries. The story begins on a seemingly average Thursday — average until a fleet of cantankerous aliens arrives to raze Earth in order to make way for a new intergalactic hyperspace bypass. Arthur Dent, who’s already had a bad enough day trying to prevent his house from getting demolished, barely escapes with the help of his alien friend, Ford Prefect. The two go on an epic adventure across the universe, meeting a vast array of eclectic and mind-bending creatures. It’s nearly impossible to condense the plot of the entire “five-part trilogy” (which includes The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, Life, the Universe and Everything, So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish, and Mostly Harmless), but it involves the discovery of the Earth’s origins, “God’s Final Message to His Creation,” and the answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything. The answer, of course, is 42. Such non sequitur is typical of Adams’s writing, which often jumps off into extremely long tangents to describe a seemingly trivial affair or raise points that breach the philosophical in their irrationality and wit. Such quotations as “Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable in their apparent disinclination to do so” are riddled throughout his works, revealing a mind that had an amazing ability to place a unique perspective on weighty matters while maintaining a tone of absolute lightheartedness. Passages from the Hitchhiker’s Guide (emblazoned with the most pertinent piece of advice ever: “Don’t Panic”) place more emphasis on where to get a good drink than on dry explications of alien worlds. “Mostly Harmless,” in fact, makes up the entire entry in the Guide describing Earth. Adams was one person who could see the big picture and realize how terribly bland a sight it was. Reading him is like stepping into a giant Zen koan. If you’re not laughing after the first few pages, you should probably make an appointment with your optometrist. A great mind, lost.

Amazing!!!
My favorite book series of all time. It is hilarious and ridiculous. The plot is refreshingly unexpected. I love everything about the series, and it is wonderful having all the books in one volume.
