At a booksellers convention breakfast, Dave Barry remembers, "people kept coming up to tell Douglas [Adams] how excited they were about his heavily promoted new Hitchhiker book. I asked him about it, and, glancing around, he whispered, 'I, umm, haven't actually started it.' " Fortunately, Adams overcome his procrastination to write a novel adaptation of a radio serial of The Hitchhike'sr Guide. The rest, of course, is history.

This 25th anniversary Deluxe Edition is packed with an astounding array of new and never-before-collected Hitchhiker material, including contributions from Douglas Coupland, Neil Gaiman, and Terry Pratchett.
