"A twentieth century classic." Purchased on Mighty Ape

Every ape-descended life form should read this book at least once this lifetime and possibly once again if there is a nextĀ one.

Description

This is introduced by Richard Dawkins and Nick Harkaway. First a legendary radio series, then a sequence of bestselling books, and most recently a blockbuster movie, The Hitch Hiker'sĀ Guide to the Galaxy is one of the greatest fictional enterprises of the twentieth century.

Reissued in time for the first novel'sĀ thirty-fifth anniversary, this hardback omnibus edition includes all five parts of the trilogy by Douglas Adams, along with a wealth of extra material prefaced and contextualised by Jem Roberts, the official biographer of Douglas Adams, to complete theĀ canon.

This unique hardback edition is indispensable for any would-be galactic traveller, and a must-read for all Douglas AdamsĀ fans.
