'One of the greatest achievements in comedy. A work of staggering genius' -
David Walliams An international phenomenon and pop-culture classic, The
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy has been a radio show, TV series, novel, stage
play, comic book and film. Following the galactic (mis)adventures of Arthur
Dent, Hitchhiker?s in its various incarnations has captured the imaginations of
curious minds around the world . . . 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 express route, 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, in
large friendly letters, with the words: DON'T PANIC. The weekend has only just
begun . . . This 42nd Anniversary Edition includes exclusive bonus material from
the Douglas Adams archives, and an introduction by former Doctor Who showrunner,
Russell T Davies. Continue Arthur Dent's intergalactic adventures in the rest of
the trilogy with five parts: The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, Life,
the Universe and Everything, So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish, and Mostly
Harmless.
