The Hitch Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy: (Gollancz S.F.)

One Thursday lunchtime Earth is unexpectedly demolished to make way for a new hyperspace bypass. For Arthur Dent, who has only just had his house demolished that morning, this is already more than he can cope with. Sadly, however, the weekend has only just begun. And the Galaxy is a very, very large and startling place indeed ...THE HITCH HIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY became a massive cult success when it was first published and continues to sell all over the world. It introduced such memorable characters as Arthur Dent, Marvin the Paranoid Android, Zaphod Beeblebrox and, of course, the Vogons, and remains one of the funniest, most irreverent and entertaining novels ever.

    This is easily one of the funniest books ever written.

    Earth gets demolished to make way for a needless inter-galactic bypass and everybody dies. Except for Arthur Dent, who is having a hell of a day. His house has already been knocked down by a fat, grunting man from the council, and now he has to come to terms with the idea of hitchhiking around space for the rest of his life with his best friend Ford, who turns out to be an alien.
