Slartibartfast 5.0 out of 5 stars A pioneer in the book-to-game genre. Check out his other works, you will not be disappointed.Maybe I didn't look closely enough, but I thought this was a set of 4 paperbacks. It's actually one large paperback which is a bit cumbersome to read.SO creative and hilarious in every way. I would highly recommend the book to anyone. Also the seller was great and the price was good.I know it will be difficult if not impossible to replace them, and I wanted to read the books again so this was perfect for me!Told the recipient that when he as done reading, I would like to read it also.The day Adams died I genuinely cried. The universe he created is one of such fantasy and fun that I regularly come back to it. It’s so simply written and yet so complex and fun, every detail is thought of (bistro mathematics, the dozens of uses for a towel, the variations of a Gin and tonic) and some details are so brilliantly vague (space is big. Really big!) it genuinely is laugh a minute. The use of language is brilliantly retro (kill-o-zap guns) and so wonderfully whimsical (Slartibartfast is a reoccurring engineer who did the crinkly bits around Norway and won an award for them) To say this trilogy of five had an impact on my life is an understatement. It’s more important than any Shakespeare play, better value than the encyclopaedia galactica, more popular than the celestial home care omnibus, the books; where god went wrong, some more of gods mistakes and just who is this god person anyway. You already know the meaning of life is 42 and you know not to panic. Now find out why by doing yourself a favour and reading the cultural phenomenon.I was told it's not easy to read this book, esp.Then I found out there was another book left to read - Mostly harmless.
You should get that one too.Very good value for money since it contains all the books. It is quite large though, consider that before buying, you might benefit more from buying each book separately.To that end I thought it was about time to read the book and to my surprise I found the series was quite true to the book.This is the first non-fiction book I have read for years and this is because they usually fail to sustain my interest and I am somewhat into my science. This book was recommended to me by a physics teacher and I don't regret opening it up. Funny adventures and excellently written. The 13-digit and 10-digit formats both work.

So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish Just as Arthur Dent's sense of reality is in its dickiest state he suddenly finds the girl of his dreams. He finds her in the last place in the Universe in which he would expect to find anything at all, but which 3,976,000 people will find oddly familiar.

To see what your friends thought of this book,The series title is hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy but the fictional book is referred as hitch hiker's guide. Does anyone know why it's used like that? It was one of the first science fiction novels I read, and definitely my first taste of Douglas Adams and British quirkiness. The thing you have to get about h2g2 is that it's not enough to suspend your disbelief. You need to have it surgically removed, then seal it in an airtight box, ship the box overseas to Germany (use FedEx), and bury the box in an abandoned mine (alternatively, if you It was one of the first science fiction novels I read, and definitely my first taste of Douglas Adams and British quirkiness. You need to have it surgically removed, then seal it in an airtight box, ship the box overseas to Germany (use FedEx), and bury the box in an abandoned mine (alternatively, if you live in Germany, ship it to Australia). The book begins with the end of the world, which is naturally an excellent way to begin any story. In fact it's almost becoming cliche now. However, at the time Douglas Adams was doing it, it was just what you did to make money working for the BBC. Arthur Dent is the lovable everyman with whom we can sympathize (and sometimes yell at for being such a dense clod). He is not a knight in shining armour, nor is he the renegade anti-hero we are so used to seeing in action films these days. He's British. He's middle-class. His home and planet have been demolished all in one day.
You'd think the universe would cut him some slack, but no. What really appeals to me about h2g2, however, is the fact that it is so readable. I take it with me whenever I travel (which isn't very often), because I always know I will enjoy it. And as I get older, there are new dimensions for me to appreciate. At first glance, the situations in the book seem absurd and infinitely improbable. Yet if you think about it long enough, you will realize that they are in fact what goes on in real life here on mostly harmless Earth. The universe of h2g2 is a microcosmic representation of our own society's bureaucratic fallacies, beginning with the demolition of one man's house and working its way up to the poignant irony that Earth is a computer built to find the Ultimate Question to Life, the Universe, and Everything. The fact that the entire series is about the search for the question, and not the answer, which the book happily reveals to all of us, is a timeless metaphor for human existence. It doesn't matter whether you read this in the '80s, '90s, now, or in the future. What do we expect to find. H2g2 conveys this unoriginal thought in a very original and fun manner--the Earth gets destroyed, naturally, then mice claim that they ordered it custom-made from a planet-building society, and.So far I've only really explored the first book, and the overarching concepts of the series. What about the other books. Each has its merits, although unquestionably the first book is the best. Restaurant at the End of the Universe has the tastiest quotation of the entire series, right at the beginning, so cool that many just attribute it to the series itself. So Long, and Thanks for all the Fish has the pithy God's Final Message to His Creation, which is really the epitome of bureaucratic rhetoric. I didn't really like Mostly Harmless. I'm sorry, but it was depressing.
I think that at that point, Adams had been doing h2g2 so long that it was no longer a burst of creative genius but an arduous struggle to write something new out of something so well done already. The absurdity of the original two books, which adapted material from the original radio series, was replaced by a more rigid, formulaic absurdity, and that just isn't as fun. Still, h2g2 is an amazing and timeless series. Few series, no matter how popular, can make that claim. And thanks to Douglas Adams, I always know where my towel is. Right, no one! That was rhetorical.How Adams' himself felt about his books is of course interesting and others opinions also, but not for this decision really. Neither is the fact that there are 5 parts in the series. Or 6, depending on who you ask. The man was a genius taken far too soon from us and I would gladly read his shopping list. Actually, I think I did read his shopping list, in The Salmon of Doubt - or possibly in a biography(?). Anyway, beside the point again. What matters is of course what version of this great work that works the very best for me and this is it. Fascinatingly, Douglas Adams being very very British, the Swedish translation (by Thomas Tidholm ) of this, Liftarens Guide till Galaxen is an on par edition and very much recommended. It is also one that I could read over and over again. It is also one that I could read over and over again. It's quite fortunate I did because I think the best way to experience Adam's mad world is to read it as one book. The book is full of the cleverest, funniest nonsense I have ever come across, so sharp it cuts itself into funnier, cleverer, more ridiculous nonsense still. The first t It's quite fortunate I did because I think the best way to experience Adam's mad world is to read it as one book. The first time I read it I found almost constantly giggling like a maniac at words on paper. IT has not grown duller with time.
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy trilogy is a prime example of my favorite kind of book; the kind you read for its contents, not for its resolution. You keep thinking. Adams has outdone himself now, he cannot be clever or funnier, but he keeps managing to surprise you. Hell, you should read this book for its quotability factor alone. Fair Warning: The Humor In This Book Is Extremely British. The first book is the original hitchhikers guide and is fabulous. A work of real originality, humour, wit and acute satirical observation. No question about this being a 5 star book. 'Restaurant' is also very funny but somewhat episodic - there is a slight impression that the author is making it up as he goes along that detracts from the immersion. In the third book this impression is stronger, and there are less good jokes. 3 stars. The fourth and final b The first book is the original hitchhikers guide and is fabulous. In the third book this impression is stronger, and there are less good jokes. 3 stars. The fourth and final book in the anthology is really bad. No real humour, very short, the characters are inconsistent and heavily reliant on previous works to give them any depth at all. An unreserved no stars. So overall a mixed bag. In total, 3 stars seems fair, largely due to the brilliance of the first book. I cannot (ever) remember any of it, except random character names. So I read it again. And I enjoy it every time--and it all flows away. If I were on a desert island with only one book series, I'd take this because I know I'd always be entertained anew. My oldest just read it for the first time and giggled aloud the entire time. He actually remembers parts of it, though--evidence of evolution, I guess. Assuming, of course, that remembering Douglas Adams enhances s I cannot (ever) remember any of it, except random character names. Assuming, of course, that remembering Douglas Adams enhances survival and reproductive chances. After all I did fairly well, and I.wait.

The plot? well, I did lose that from time to time but it didn't matter, I picked it up again pretty easily. I really wonder how Douglas Adams mind ticked on a daily basis to come up with this extraordinary four parter. Did he partake in a little LSD one wonders.;-) Shame he isn't around to write more books because I certainly for one would read them.What a weird and wonderful mind. This book is one of those that I will definitely read again at some point and see if I take something more or even else from it as it oozes detail and hilarity and quirkiness. I was amazed how much at the beginning of the book resounded modern day.Douglas Adams was onto something with that screen reader;-) Funny thing about this book is how Adams incorporates so many aspects of 'truth' into this sci fi, action packed, humorous 'trilogy' of four. It deserves all five stars given and I recommend everybody to give it a try. People had always talked about how funny it was, and made references to it, so I figured the time had come to familiarize myself with it. I have admit, I didn't even actually read half of it, I hated it so much.

He is best known as the author of the He is best known as the author of the In addition to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Douglas Adams wrote or co-wrote three stories of the science fiction television series Doctor Who and served as Script Editor during the seventeenth season.
