The Illustrated HGTTG is a MUST for every D. Adams fan.

The More Than Complete Hitchhikers Guide
Douglas Adams

Random House Value Publishing, 1989

More Than Complete

+ Very good edition. Great for a Douglas Adams Fan.

This may be the "More Than Complete" Guide, but it does not contain the fifth book (The Salmon Of Doubt). However, this book was my introduction to Douglas Adams and I have read it at least a dozen times since it was given to me six years ago. If you think you'd like British science fiction ...
  
  











  



  
Long Dark Tea Time of the Soul

I liked this one also.

+ He wrote some great stuff that wasn't Hitchhiker, too
  
  











  



  
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Deluxe 25th Anniversary Edition
Douglas Adams

Harmony, 2004

Douglas is Douglas...you couldn't ask for more

+ Absurd. Clever. Satirical. Quirky. And, sadly, just not as funny 17 years later.

The man was a genius along the lines of Terry Pratchett. Must be something about the water over there... If you're a fan of Douglas, it's a must read. Period. All his stuff is a must read in my opinion...if you like humor and can handle British humour. Great photos, write-ups, tid-bits, ...

The Deeper Meaning of Liff: A Dictionary of Things There Aren't Any Words for Yet--But There Ought to Be
Douglas Adams, John Lloyd

Three Rivers Press, 2005

I love it!

+ Amusing read for lunchbreaks
+ glorious

This book is wonderful- I really loved it and laughed out loud more than once. It' not for everybody, but it does have a wonderful sense of humor and it describes perfectly several situations you have lived trough. Too bad for the very British ones that I missed, not being British. But overall a ...

Ballantine Books, 2005

Mostly Harmless
Douglas Adams

Del Rey, 2000

Are We There Yet?

+ Panic
+ Mostly satisfying

Douglas Adams began his Hitchhiker's trilogy with a tremendous story, an engaging cast of characters, and some excellent humor. Five times he has come back to those characters, with less than stellar turnouts than the first novel. "Mostly Harmless", the fifth book in the series, and what Ford ...
  
  











  



  
Life, the Universe and Everything (Hitchhiker's Trilogy)
Douglas Adams

Del Rey, 1995

A Big Thirll in the Triology

+ Even better than the first two

Life, the Universe, and Everything is one of the best books in the Hitchhiker's Series. However, you must read the 2 previous books in the series in order to understand this book. The story continues on from where the Restaurant at the End of the Universe left off. Arthur Dent is stranded on ...
