The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

The adventure continues for the cosmically displaced Arthur Dent and his curious comrades as they hurtle across space and desperately search for a place to eat in this second volume in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series. nNow celebrating the 42nd anniversary of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, soon to be a Hulu original series! nDouglas Adams is a terrific satirist.--The Washington Post Book World n nFacing annihilation at the hands of the warlike Vogons? Time for a cup of tea! Join the cosmically displaced Arthur Dent and his uncommon comrades in arms in their desperate search for a place to eat, as they hurtle across space powered by pure improbability. n nAmong Arthur's motley shipmates are Ford Prefect, a longtime friend and expert contributor to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy; Zaphod Beeblebrox, the three-armed, two-headed ex-president of the galaxy; Tricia McMillan, a fellow Earth refugee who's gone native (her name is Trillian now); and Marvin, the moody android. Their destination? The ultimate hot spot for an evening of apocalyptic entertainment and fine dining, where the food speaks for itself (literally). n nWill they make it? The answer: hard to say. But bear in mind that The Hitchhiker's Guide deleted the term Future Perfect from its pages, since it was discovered not to be! n nWhat's such fun is how amusing the galaxy looks through Adams's sardonically silly eyes.--Detroit Free Pressn
