International bestseller
'By turns authoritative as the narrator, bemused as Arthur Dent, deadpan as Ford Prefect and manic as Zaphod Beeblebrox, [Stephen Fry] makes an altogether appropriate reader.'
The Times
Losing your planet isn't the end of the world ... Douglas Adams's mega-selling cult classic!
One Thursday lunchtime the Earth gets unexpectedly demolished to make way for a new hyperspace bypass. It's the final straw for Arthur Dent, who has already had his house bulldozed that morning. But for Arthur, that is only the beginning ...
In the seconds before global obliteration, Arthur is plucked from the planet by his friend Ford Prefect – and together the pair venture out across the galaxy on the craziest, strangest road trip of all time.
'It's science fiction and it's extremely funny ... inspired lunacy that leaves hardly a science fiction cliche alive.'
The Washington Post
'Very simply, the book is one of the funniest SF spoofs ever written, with hyperbolic ideas folding in on themselves.'
School Library Journal
'Irresistible!'
The Boston Globe
