One of the greatest achievements in comedy. A work of staggering genius -- David Walliams Dazzlingly inventive -- Caitlin Moran Fizzing with ideas . . . Brilliant -- Charlie Brooker, writer and creator of Black Mirror It changed my whole life. It's literally out of this world -- Tom Baker Hitchhikers is packed with that unique energy, all barmy and bristling and bold. This book can be witty, iconoclastic, godless, savage, sweet, surreal, but above all, it dares to be silly. Fiercely, beautifully silly -- Russell T. Davies, writer and producer of Doctor Who He had almost a Wodehousian style and some of his phrases and jokes entered our language. He changed the way people spoke -- Stephen Fry There has never been another writer remotely like Douglas Adams. He discovered a completely new genre scientific wit and having discovered it he raised it to dizzying heights -- Tony Robinson Quite good I suppose, if you like brilliantly entertaining books written with a touch of imaginative genius -- Griff Rhys Jones Very occasionally a book comes along that changes the way you laugh and what you laugh about -- Richard Dawkins One of the worlds sanest, smartest, kindest, funniest voices * Independent on Sunday * Magical . . . read this book * Sunday Express * Sheer delight * The Times *
