The Complete Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
The Complete Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: The Trilogy of Five | Douglas Adams
11 posts | 19 read | 1 reading | 7 to read
DON'T PANIC! On 12 October 1979 the most remarkable book ever to come out of the great publishing corporations of Ursa Minor (and Earth) was made available to humanity. This was of course The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy. But this was just the beginning. We followed the adventures of hapless protagonist, Arthur Dent and his alien side-kick, Ford Prefect, across a trilogy of five books. And this merry spacewagon, featuring a flying sofa, a Paranoid Android, a gift-wrapped fishbowl, bath towels and much else besides, became an instant classic. Now, for the first time, we are publishing all five books in the Hitchhiker's series as an ebook omnibus: Book 1: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Book 2: The Restaurant at the End of the Universe Book 3: Life, The Universe and Everything Book 4: So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish Book 5: Mostly Harmless

For an indoor picnic, this book made a wonderful centerpiece! Not sad at all that the rain kept us indoors. #gar #creativeusesforbooks #whatagreathusband

Hitchhikers Guide has been a consistent fave of mine for 20 years.

And I'm not gonna lie... Since I have to play catch up, I'm using one of my old photos from the last challenge I did like this, about 6 years ago on Tumblr. 😅.

#JuneTunz #day27 #ManDown There's plenty of examples for this prompt in these books. Arthur Dent is a man down, the only survivor from the day earth was blown up, he's a depressed human who doesn't care about the sights of the galaxy, he just wants to go home and does Marvin the paranoid android count as a man? Coz he's the most down of them all, he even made an AI commit suicide just by talking to it.

Cinfhen Well played 🙌🏻💕😊 8y

#FeistyFeb #Day17 Homage @RealLifeReading

I'd love an infinity scarf like this with text from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy or one of my other favorite books to pay homage to my favorite hobby! 😁

When I think #weirdbooks I think Douglas Adams and Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy!
The story is weird and wonderful and full of humour.
It is unquestionably random, but such good fun! 😍
Who wouldn't want to witness the end of the universe over dinner? Not so keen on the talking to my food part mind you... 🤔
