Douglas Adams's Starship Titanic by Terry Jones
Arguably the greatest collaboration in the whole history of comedy Bestselling author Douglas Adams wrote the storyline based on his CD-ROM game of the same name (as this novel, not as him, obviously). Terry Jones of Monty Python wrote the book. In the nude Parents be warned Most of the words in this book were written by a naked man So. You want to argue with that? All right, we give in. Starship Titanic is the greatest, most fabulous, most technologically advanced interstellar cruise line ever built. It is like a cross between the Queen Mary, the Chrysler Building, Tutankhamen's tomb, and Venice. Furthermore, it cannot possibly go wrong. . . . Sadly, however, seconds after its launch it undergoes SMEF, or Spontaneous Massive Existence Failure. And disappears. Except, everything's got to be somewhere. Coming home that night, on a little known planet called Earth, Dan and Lucy Gibson find something very large and very, very shiny sticking into their house. . .Douglas Adams was born in 1952 and attended Cambridge University. He wrote The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, Life, the Universe, and Everything, So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish, and Mostly Harmless, which is part of the Hitchhiker's Trilogy. Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul, The Meaning of Liff and The Deeper Meaning of Liff (co-written with John Lloyd), and Last Chance to See (co-written with Mark Carwardine) are among his other works. The Salmon of Doubt, a best-selling compilation, was published posthumously in May 2002. At douglasadams.com, you may learn more about Douglas Adam's life and career.
