<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Adams is back with the amazing, unprecedented, logic-defying, but-why-stop-now fifth novel in the Hitchhiker Trilogy. Random, the daughter of Arthur Dent, has grown up on a remote world at the edge of the universe. Now she sets out on a transgalactic quest to find the planet of her ancestors. . . .<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><b>Now celebrating the 42nd anniversary of <i>The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, </i> soon to be a Hulu original series!</b> <p/>"Hitchhiker fans rejoice! . . . [Here's] more of the same zany nonsensical mayhem."--<i>The New York Times Book Review</i></b> <p/>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. <p/>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. <p/>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? <p/><b>"Douglas Adams is a terrific satirist. . . . He is anything but harmless."--<i>The Washington Post Book World</i></b><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Hitchhiker fans rejoice! . . . [Here's] more of the same zany nonsensical mayhem."--<i>New York Times Book Review <p/></i>"It is Mr. Adams's genius to hurl readers into a plot that seems to go everywhere and nowhere, then suddenly drop the pieces into place, click, click, click, like tumblers in a lock. . . . Delightful."--<i>Baltimore Sun<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.
