The feckless protagonist, Arthur Dent, is reminiscent of Vonnegut heroes."--<i>Chicago Tribune</i></b> <p/>The unhappy inhabitants of planet Krikkit are sick of looking at the night sky above their heads--so they plan to destroy it. The universe, that is. Now only five individuals stand between the killer robots of Krikkit and their goal of total annihilation. <p/>They are Arthur Dent, a mild-mannered space and time traveler who tries to learn how to fly by throwing himself at the ground and missing; Ford Prefect, his best friend, who decides to go insane to see if he likes it; Slartibartfast, the indomitable vice president of the Campaign for Real Time, who travels in a ship powered by irrational behavior; Zaphod Beeblebrox, the two-headed, three-armed ex-president of the galaxy; and Trillian, the sexy space cadet who is torn between a persistent Thunder God and a very depressed Beeblebrox. <p/>How will it all end? Will it end? Only this stalwart crew knows as they try to avert "universal" Armageddon and save life as we know it--and don't know it! <p/><b>"Adams is one of those rare treasures: an author who, one senses, has as much fun writing as one has reading."--<i>Arizona Daily Star</i></b><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Wild satire . . . the feckless protagonist, Arthur Dent, is reminiscent of Vonnegut heroes."--<i>Chicago Tribune <p/></i>"Adams is one of those rare treasures: an author who, one senses, has as much fun writing as one has reading."--<i>Arizona Daily Star<br></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Douglas Adams</b> was born in 1952 and created all the various and contradictory manifestations of <i>The Hitchhiker's</i> <i>Guide to the Galaxy</i> radio, novels, TV, computer games, stage adaptations, comic book, and bath towel.
