Summary

So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish, read by Martin Freeman, is the fourth instalment in Douglas Adams' bestselling Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy 'trilogy'.

There is a knack to flying. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss. It's not an easy thing to do, and Arthur Dent thinks he's the only human who's been able to master this nifty little trick – until he meets Fenchurch, the woman of his dreams.

Fenchurch once realized how the world could be made a good and happy place. Unfortunately, she's forgotten. Convinced that the secret lies within God's Final Message to His Creation, they go in search of it. And, in a dramatic break with tradition, actually find it . . .

Follow Arthur Dent's galactic (mis)adventures in the last of the 'trilogy of five', Mostly Harmless.

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)

This story is a wonderful departure from form for the series so far. Focussing on Arthur Dent's return to an Earth he previously thought destroyed.

This isn't a sci-fi story, it's a romance story set in the Hitchhiker's world with that same absurdist sense of humour.

The series has really engaged me. I think its the realisation explanations of real life as they would be...about ridiculously crazy things. i find myself just accepting things.

must read

My colleagues in work gave me some funny looks while listening to this during work. It has everything I have loved about this series, absurd analogies, out and out belly laughs and having Martin Freeman narrate was genius. would definitely recommend anyone read not just this book the whole series

Absurd & Funny ....... as usual

I really enjoyed the story and this story and the narrator. I wish Marvin was in the story more often.
