Summary
Read by Martin Freeman, in Life, the Universe and Everything, the third title in Douglas Adams' blockbusting scifi comedy series, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Arthur Dent finds himself enlisted to prevent a galactic war.
In consequence of a number of stunning catastrophes, Arthur Dent is surprised to find himself living in a hideously miserable prehistoric Earth. However, just as he thinks that things cannot possibly get any worse, they suddenly do. He discovers that the galaxy is not only mind bogglingly big and bewildering, but also that most of the things that happen in it are staggeringly unfair.
Escaping the end of the world for a second time, Arthur, Ford, and their old friend Slartibartfast embark (reluctantly) on a mission to save the whole galaxy from fanatical robots. Not bad for a man in his dressing gown . . .
Follow Arthur Dent's galactic (mis)adventures in the rest of the trilogy with five parts: So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish, and Mostly Harmless.

A Whimsical Interlude
A really fun listen!
Solid plot with the same absurdist humour we know from this series.
Freeman's Narration is excellent yet again.
Better than the Restaurant at the End of the Universe,
Still not quite the original.

Return to Form
This installment in the Hitchhiker's Guide series is a return to form, following the slump of the 2nd book. Although the beginning is a bit chaotic, the rest of the book is fantastic- a true continuation of the first. Great narration by Martin Freeman too.

Cricket and Sofas
Martin Freeman defiantly does Life, the Universe, and Everything justice as one of my favorite readers. This book, another Douglas Adams classic, will make you laugh till your jaw hurts with hilarious dialog and a humor lost on many this will keep you entertained on the bus albeit with a few stares from the general public as you chuckle quietly to yourself

Great fun..!
Great chapter in the series but "wandered off" and "went on a bit" a little too much in places. A good listen though and did make me laugh out loud occasionally 😆 👍
