Life, the Universe and Everything

by Douglas Adams
Life, the Universe and Everything
Life, the Universe and Everything

Cosmic absurdity with existential British wit.

"Life, the Universe and Everything" isn't just another sci-fi adventure; it's a quirky, mind-bending journey that's perfect for those who love their humor drenched in British satire and cosmic irony. As you follow the eccentric cast dealing with the Krikkit crisis, you'll find yourself chuckling at the sheer absurdity of it all. Douglas Adams has a way of making the end of the universe seem like a hilarious inconvenience, and that's something that can turn any dreary day into an interstellar escapade.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

The unhappy inhabitants of planet Krikkit are sick of looking at the night sky above their heads–so they plan to destroy it. The universe, that is. Now only five individuals stand between the killer robots of Krikkit and their goal of total annihilation. They are Arthur Dent, a mild-mannered space and time traveler who tries to learn how to fly by throwing himself at the ground and missing; Ford Prefect, his best friend, who decides to go insane to see if he likes it; Slartibartfast, the indomitable vice president of the Campaign for Real Time, who travels in a ship powered by irrational behavior; Zaphod Beeblebrox, the two-headed, three-armed ex-president of the galaxy; and Trillian, the sexy space cadet who is torn between a persistent Thunder God and a very depressed Beeblebrox. How will it all end? Will it end? Only this stalwart crew knows as they try to avert “universal” Armageddon and save life as we know it–and don’t know it!
