Life, The Universe And Everything by Douglas Adams

In consequence of a number of stunning catastrophes, Arthur Dent is surprised to find himself living in a hideously miserable cave on prehistoric Earth. And just when he thinks things cannot possibly get any worse, they do. He discovers that not only is the Galaxy mind-bogglingly big and bewildering, but also that most of the things that happen in it are staggeringly unfair . . . The final part of the original Hitch Hiker's Guide trilogy confirms Douglas Adams as one of the most original and funniest of Britain's comic writers.
Douglas Adams came to world-wide prominence with the BBC Radio series The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy, which subsequently became the bestselling novel, a television series, a stage play, a computer game, audio cassettes, CD-roms and a towel, and was followed by the last two books in the original trilogy, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe and Life, The Universe and Everything. All three are published as Gollancz presentation hardbacks. The final two books in the Hitch Hiker Trilogy are So Long and Thanks for all the Fish and Mostly Harmless. Douglas Adams, who died in 2001, is also the author of Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency and The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul, The Meaning of Liff (with John Lloyd) and Last Chance to See (with Mark Cawardine), and editor of The Utterly Utterly Merry Comic Relief Christmas Book.
