Mostly Harmless by Adams
Now celebrating the 42nd anniversary of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, soon to be a Hulu original series Hitchhiker fans rejoice . . . Here's] more of the same zany nonsensical mayhem.--The New York Times Book Review It's easy to get disheartened when your planet has been blown up and the woman you love has vanished due to a misunderstanding about space/time. However, instead of being disheartened, Arthur Dent makes the terrible mistake of starting to enjoy life a bit--and immediately all hell breaks loose. Hell takes a number of forms: there's the standard Ford Prefect version, in the shape of an all-new edition of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and a totally unexpected manifestation in the form of a teenage girl who startles Arthur Dent by being his daughter when he didn't even know he had one. Can Arthur save the Earth from total multidimensional obliteration? Can he save the Guide from a hostile alien takeover? Can he save his daughter, Random, from herself? Of course not. He never works out exactly what is going on. Will you? Douglas Adams is a terrific satirist. . . . He is anything but harmless.--The Washington Post Book WorldDouglas 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.
