All five of Douglas Adam's HItch Hiker's series in one volume. The earlier books are excellent, but the later ones not so entertaining. ( )

Arthur Dent har en riktigt dålig dag, redan innan Jorden förstörs för att göra plats åt en intergalaktisk motorväg. Och efter det blir det bara värre ... Sekunder innan Jorden sprängs i småbitar räddas Arthur av Ford Prefect. Tillsammans sätter de upp tummen och med endast en handduk, en liten gul fisk och en bok i sitt bagage ger de sig ut på en fantastisk resa genom universum. Lyckligtvis är fisken rätt bra på språk och boken, 'liftarens Guide till Galaxen', är till stor hjälp ...

Got through half of this, 2-3 books, before deciding that:
- it's not actually funny. At all.
- much, much better for teenagers
- and something else.

Abandoned. ( )

Det är en helt vanlig morgon för Arthur Dent; inte alls olik andra morgnar. Åtminstone inte förrän han inser att det står en bulldozer och massor av arbetare utanför hans fönster. Det visar sig nämligen att hans hus måste rivas då en ny genomfartsled ska byggas och hans hus råkar stå precis i vägen. Men när han ligger där i gyttan i bara badrocken dyker hans vän Ford förbi. Han har nyheter som kräver att protesten ligger på is bara en liten stund.

Själva Jorden är nämligen på väg att sprängas för att ge plats åt en intergalatisk genomfartsled. Ford vet detta för han själv är utomjording; han hamnade på Jorden på grund av studier för det digitala uppslagsverket Liftarens guide till galaxen. Men nu ser han sin chans att återvända hem, denna gång med Arthur eftersom Jorden ändå ska förintas. I sista sekund lyckas de lifta med ett av skeppen i Vogonflottan vars uppgift är att röja Jorden ur vägen.

Ungefär samtidigt stjäl Fords halvkusin Zaphod Beeblebrox stjäl det nya rymdskeppet Hjärtat av Guld från dess premiärvisning. Det är ett skepp som drivs med hjälp av en oändlig osannolikhet. Hjärtat av Guld är nämligen det enda skeppet i universum som kan hjälpa honom på traven med de planer han smider. Problemet är bara att inte riktigt vet vad dessa planer är...

Det är en osannolik bok där allt och inget kan hända. Hela boken känns som ett enda citat; det är svårt att välja de bästa delarna; man skulle bli tvungen att inkludera hela boken. Samtidigt som den är full av klockrena och ironiska repliker och beskrivningar så är den även fascinerande djup. På ett sådant där jobbigt sätt som man helst ignorerar fast man vet att det är omöjligt. ( )

OK

But the somewhat weak ending can never ever take away from books 1 & 2, they're so many stars that the average still comes out way above 5. ( )
