<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>There are many chuckles to be had by reading this hilarious novel about a space adventure that undergoes Spontaneous Massive Existence Failure (SMEF) and disappears--in the house of two Earth residents.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Arguably the greatest collaboration in the whole history of comedy! <p/>Bestselling author Douglas Adams wrote the storyline based on his CD-ROM game of the same name (as this novel, not as him, obviously). <p/>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! <p/>So. You want to argue with that? All right, we give in. <p/>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. . . . <p/>Sadly, however, seconds after its launch it undergoes SMEF, or Spontaneous Massive Existence Failure. And disappears. <p/>Except, everything's got to be somewhere. <p/>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. . .<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>ARGUABLY THE GREATEST COLLABORATION IN THE WHOLE HISTORY OF COMEDY!<P>Bestselling author Douglas Adams wrote the storyline based on his CD-ROM game of the same name (as this novel, not as him, obviously).<P>Terry Jones of Monty Python wrote the book.
