The fourth adventure in the bestselling "Hitchhiker's" series brings Arthur Dent back to Earth with nothing more to show for his long, strange travel than a ratty towel, a plastic shopping bag, and the belief it was all a figment of his stressed-out imagination.

alternate cover for this ISBN can be found here The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy has, in what we laughingly call the past, had a great deal to say on the subject of parallel universes. Very little of this, however, at all comprehensible to anyone below the level of Advanced God and, since it is now well-established that all known gods came into existence a good three millionths of a second after the Universe began rather than, as they usually claimed, the previous week, they already have a great deal of explaining to do as it is, and are therefore not available for comment at this time... The book that gives a whole new meaning to the world 'trilogy'.
And Another Thing...

"And Another Thing ..." will be the sixth novel in the now improbably named "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" trilogy. Eight years after the death of its creator, Douglas Adams, the author's widow, Jane Belson, has given her approval for the project to be continued by the international number one bestselling children's writer, Eoin Colfer, author of the "Artemis Fowl" novels. Douglas Adams himself once said, 'I suspect at some point in the future I will write a sixth Hitchhiker book. Five seems to be a wrong kind of number, six is a better kind of number.' Belson said of Eoin Colfer, 'I love his books and could not think of a better person to transport Arthur, Zaphod and Marvin to pastures new.' Colfer, a fan of Hitchhiker since his schooldays, said, 'Being given the chance to write this book is like suddenly being offered the superpower of your choice. For years I have been finishing this incredible story in my head and now I have the opportunity to do it in the real world.' Prepare to be amazed...

"Földlakók figyelem! Amint azt nyilván önök is tudják, a Galaxis külső területeinek fejlesztését célzó tervek megkövetelik, hogy hiperűr-bekötőutat építsünk az önök Naprendszerén keresztül. Sajnálatos módon az önök bolygója egyike azoknak, melyek szanálásra kerülnek. A folyamat két földi percnél valamivel kevesebbet vesz igénybe. Köszönöm figyelmüket!" Ha előállna ez a módfelett kellemetlen helyzet, hogy valamely bolygót - jóllehet kozmikus érdekből - lebontanak alólunk, még kapóra jöhet a Galaxis Útikalauz stopposoknak című kézikönyv. Segít eligazodni. Főleg ha betartjuk a mottóját. Így hangzik: NE ESS PÁNIKBA!
