The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy - Part Thirty-Four

The Bearded Wit

And Another Thing... We dive into the sixth book of three - the final instalment in the Hitchhiker's saga - this time penned by Eoin Colfer of "Artemis Fowl" fame. Sanctioned by Adams' widow, Jane Belson, this is the book that he had intended to write before his all-too-early passing. After writing five Hitchhiker books, Adams had felt the need to continue the story: "I suspect at some point in the future I will write a sixth Hitchhiker book...", and "People have said, quite rightly, that Mostly Harmless is a very bleak book. I would love to finish Hitchhiker on a slightly more upbeat note, so five seems to be a wrong kind of number; six is a better kind of number." Grab your towels and put on a brew, we're off again!
