Product Information

"A fitting eulogy to the master of wacky words and even wackier tales . . . Salmon leaves no doubt as to Adams's lasting legacy."-- Entertainment Weekly With an introduction to the introduction by Terry Jones Douglas Adams changed the face of science fiction with his cosmically comic novel The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and its classic sequels. Sadly for his countless admirers, he hitched his own ride to the great beyond much too soon. Culled posthumously from Adams's fleet of beloved Macintosh computers, this selection of essays, articles, anecdotes, and stories offers a fascinating and intimate portrait of the multifaceted artist and absurdist wordsmith. Join Adams on an excursion to climb Kilimanjaro . . . dressed in a rhino costume; peek into the private life of Genghis Khan--warrior and world-class neurotic; root for the harried author's efforts to get a Hitchhiker movie off the ground in Hollywood; thrill to the further exploits of private eye Dirk Gently and two-headed alien Zaphod Beeblebrox. Though Douglas Adams is gone, he's left us something very special to remember him by. Without a doubt. "Worth reading and even cherishing, if only because it's the last we'll hear from the master of comic science fiction."-- The Star-Ledger

"Above all, of course, Douglas Adams was a transcendent, multi-faceted, comic genius. What made Douglas's work unique, I think, were the wildly contradictory attributes he displayed in his writing. He seamlessly blended world-class intelligence-and a daunting knowledge about an impossible variety of subjects (literature, computers, evolution, pop culture, genetics, and music, to name but a few)-with transcendental silliness; technophobia with a lust for, and fascination with, every high-tech toy imaginab≤ deep cynicism about virtually everything with an effusively joyful spirit; and one of the quickest wits on the planet with a relentless perfectionism in pursuing his craft." -From the Introduction by Christopher Cerf "The bottom drawer of recently deceased writers is often best left firmly locked and bolted. In the case of Douglas, I am sure you will agree, the bottom drawer (or in his case, the nested subfolders of his hard drive) has been triumphantly well worth the prising open. There are those who write from time to time and do it well, and then there are Writers. Douglas Adams, and it is pointless to attempt here an explanation or anatomisation, was born, grew up, and remained a Writer to his too-early dying day. "You are on the verge of entering the wise, provoking, benevolent, hilarious, and addictive world of Douglas Adams. Don't bolt it all whole-as with Douglas's beloved Japanese food, what seems light and easy to assimilate is subtler and more nutritious by far than it might at first appear." -Stephen Fry, author of The Liar and Making History: A Novel From the Hardcover edition., "A fitting eulogy to the master of wacky words and even wackier tales . . .

  • Poor book - Adams would not have permitted its release

    I love all of Douglas Adams' books - but this should not be considered one of them. The (very short) section at the back that was to be chapters of his new book is the best part, but even with that section you can see why Adams had decided NOT to continue on with the story (he had quit writing that story long before he died, and even mentions in one of the other articles in the book he had decided the ideas did not work as a Dirk Gently story, which it is here). And be warned - the chapters of the "new" story are clearly just the introduction of a story, with most of the plot yet to come. The rest (80%) is a collection of random stuff - 10 year old letters to the editor, short interviews with magazines, and even things published elsewhere (like Young Zaphod Plays it Safe, a very short bit ...

  • A wonderful read.

    I personally loved this book. Don't expect a classic Douglas Adams story when you pick this up. Instead of a story, it is full of letters, conversations, musings and reminiscings of the late Douglas Adams. Life experiences of meeting curious dogs, dealing with irritating carpenters, falling in love with the Beatles, swimming with Mantas and stealing cookies all with the wonderful twist of Adams' humour. For people who like short reads/short stories and still appreciate Douglas Adams' sense of humour, I would strongly encourage a read-through of this book. I would also encourage reading this book if you have a hard time telling the difference between friday and a fried egg, because Adams does a wonderful job of clarifying the distinction between the two.

  • I'm so happy to complete my collection

    I have loved everything that Douglas Adams has ever written and I'm so thrilled to finally get to read the last in The Hitchhiker's series
