When Arthur Dent's house is scheduled for demolition to build a bypass, we soon learn that the earth has also been scheduled for demolition to build a galactic highway by the Vogons. Luckily Ford Prefect hitches him and Arthur a ride on one of the spaceships, Ford came from a planet called Beetle Juice 7 and knew how to hitch a ride. Eventually Ford and Arthur are picked up by the Heart of Gold spaceship. Where we meet Zaphod, Trillion, Marvin and the computer.
This book is very much like a Guardians of the Galaxy and Monty Python mash up, with Guardians Of The Galaxy story format and Monty Python humor. So if you liked these things this book is for you.
You may not like this if you prefer action sci-fi books, or don't like irony enhanced jokes.
It's very humorous; there are a lot of laugh out loud moments, like when ____ thinks they have a way out of somewhere and then realize that they don't.
