The Restaurant at the End of the Universe - Douglas Adams - 9781473200661

If your planet has been destroyed to make way for a new hyperspace bypass, your best friend turns out to be from a small planet somewhere in the vicinity of Betelgeuse (and not Guilford, as you’d thought), and you find yourself in the company of a two-headed man who also happens to be the president of the galaxy, and a beautiful girl you utterly failed to connect with at a party in a city that no longer exists … you probably shouldn’t be surprised to find yourself having breakfast at Milliways, the Restaurant at the end of the Universe …

Douglas Adams came to world-wide prominence with the BBC Radio series The Hitch Hiker"s Guide to the Galaxy, which subsequently became the bestselling novel, a television series, a stage play, a computer game, audio cassettes, CD-roms and a towel, and was followed by the last two books in the original trilogy, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe and Life, The Universe and Everything, then a number of other fiction and non-fiction books. Douglas Adams died in 2001.
