Description

Seconds before the Earth is demolished to make way for a galactic freeway, Arthur Dent is plucked off the planet by his friend Ford Prefect, a researcher for the revised edition of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy who, for the last fifteen years, has been posing as an out-of-work actor.Together this dynamic pair begin a journey through space aided by quotes from The Hitchhiker's Guide ("A towel is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have") and a galaxy-full of fellow Zaphod Beeblebrox--the two-headed, three-armed ex-hippie and totally out-to-lunch president of the galaxy; Trillian, Zaphod's girlfriend (formally Tricia McMillan), whom Arthur tried to pick up at a cocktail party once upon a time zone; Marvin, a paranoid, brilliant, and chronically depressed robot; Veet Voojagig, a former graduate student who is obsessed with the disappearance of all the ballpoint pens he bought over the years.Where are these pens? Why are we born? Why do we die? Why do we spend so much time between wearing digital watches? For all the answers stick your thumb to the stars. And don't forget to bring a towel!

These comments are for the Dove audio book-on-cassette version of "Hitchhikes Guide To the Galaxy". The Dove audio book consists of four tapes housed in a very sturdy plastic storage case - no cheep, flimsy cardboard here, that looks just like an oversized paperback - full color cover included. There are four factors that make this a highly recommended addition to your audio library:- The 4-tape Dove version is unabridged. No need to be concerned about what "good' sections were left out because of time considerations.-The author, Mr. Adams, is the reader of this book. Let me assure you that he has an excellent reading voice and has an uncanny ability to express emotions and dramatic events.-If you know anything about this book you know that the imaginative names of locations and characters used are nearly impossible to pronounce. Well, we find out the correct pronunciation from the author and they are very humorous and memorable.-As an added bonus the inside cover list the characters in the story and a humorous one-sentence description of said characters.Yes, it is a audio CASSETTES but let me tell you audio tapes last for years if stored properly and you can purchase them for almost nothing compared to a CD version - if available. Highly recommended.
