Publisher's Summary
One Thursday lunchtime the Earth gets unexpectedly demolished to make way for a new hyperspace bypass. For Arthur Dent, who has only just had his house demolished that morning, this seems already to be more than he can cope with. Sadly, however, the weekend has only just begun, and the Galaxy is a very strange and startling place.

What the Critics Say
"By turns authoritative as the narrator, bemused as Arthur Dent, deadpan as Ford Prefect and manic as Zaphod Beeblebrox, he [Stephen Fry] makes an altogether appropriate reader . . . The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy" (The Times)

"My Memories have been Fry'ed..."
always loved Douglas Adams as a young Adult and was meaning to re read the trilogy (in four parts of course) in any case.
this was well worth the buy as Stephen Fry really does an outstanding performance, just bringing the book to life. This must be the best version of this work in my opinion, much netter than reading the book myself or watching the movie.0 of 0 people found this review helpful -
"Hitchhiker never fails to entertain"
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?I'm not the sort of person who recommends things to my friends - they're just so finicky. However, should I find out that a friend is a Hitchhiker's fan AND a Stephen Fry fan AND they ask me if it was any good I'd tell them, "Yes, yes and yes!"
The performance of this story that I know so well brought me new laughs and enjoyment.
What a shame the story reminded me of how old I am by reminding me of how old it is.

"Always a winner"
I read this book when I was 20. Over a decade later, I thought it was about time to re-read it. So, with a puzzle in front of me, I began listening to this funny story once again. I just did it to feel good, to laugh, and to reminisce.

I am an Australian woman who enjoys reading many different styles of books, from history to sci fi and mystery to poetry. I also love to listen to the same whilst not paying attention to other things. I aim for my reviews to be short and succinct so that they are easy to read.

"As always a great story, highly amusing but..."
Stephen Fry has managed to disappoint again with a rather stolid reading of a very funny and great book. So sad.
