I've read it and The Restaurant at the End of the Universe. I like Douglas Adams, and I'm a fan of British Humor. My favorite character is Marvin the robot. I just loved him! So down and depressing... he was hilarious. But that's just me, I'm weird like that.

I've just thought of another one. The Restaurant at the End of the Universe and its famous cow, offering itself up for a meal. Convenient? Yes. Creepy? Also yes. ;)

I will be reading: The Restaurant at the End of the Universe by Douglas Adams The Art Thief by Noah Charney Knight's Fee by Rosemary Sutcliff And maybe a Grisham novel or two. Hard to predict.

So in that case it's al right to combine The restaurant at the end of the universe with the omnibus of "The hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy." I understand social point of view but I still thinks it's a big difference between the The diary of a young girl : the definitive edition and the ...

... In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made alot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move." The Restaurant at the End of the Universe by Douglas Adams I LOVE that line, haha.

#20 as in the song aluded to in the Hitchhiker's guide to the Galaxy quintet somewhere I think its in Restaurant at the end but could be mistaken, it goes something like: Teleporting home one night with Ron and Sid and Meg, Ron stole Meggies heart away, and I got Sidney's leg!

Hopefully it's a book that I still have to read, but until this date I'd either say The Lions of Al-Rassan, or Left Hand of Darkness, or the Arabesque Cycle (Pashazade, Effendi and Felaheen). These last is not fantasy but sf, but... sometimes I've a hard time making a clear distinction ...

The Restaurant at the End of the Universe is more like 160 pages, from memory, it is pretty thin. ;-) You mean you are scared about what your non listed trades say about you? :)

Excellent. Alright, own up. Which of the five in the trilogy is your favorite? I lean heavily towards Restaurant at the End of the Universe but could be persuaded. And, of course, there are the definitive radio plays as well.
