It is definitely worth the read...although it may take you a few drinks to get in the right frame of mind. I absolutely love his style of writing and do not think the movie really did the book any justice, but what movies do? Everything about this facinates me, I love science fiction and wild hairbrained hiliarious nonsense. Can I please have some of what you were on, Mr Adams? Thank you for your contribution to the sci-fi community, RIP</p>...

The story centers around Arthur Dent and the adventure he is dragged into (however unwillingly) after the Earth, his home planet, is demolished. The book chronicles a journey through the parameters of space time, with a cornucopia of other worlds that Adams writes about so clearly, it was as if he had visited each. Along the way, Arthur learns about thousands of things that he did not know, such as the importance to avoid the Ravenous Bugbladder Beast of Traugh, and to ALWAYS know where his towel is.<br/> Pick up this book today. You won't be able to put it down...Or stop laughing....

I've had the very pretty leatherbound version for about 8 years now and it never ever gets boring. It's too massive a book to write a proper review about but it's absolutely fantastic. The introduction itself is hilarious ! And then the book still hasn't started properly yet.<br/><br/>It really is a proper comedy for everyone to read.<br/>...
