DOUGLAS ADAMS: A comedy/science fiction writer with a Pythonesque sense of the absurd.

Below you will find listings for individual books stocked by Amazon.com. I have grouped them first by series and second by title. You will notice that many titles come in more than one edition, so I have tried to give you as much information as possible to help you make your selection. Note: A book graphic next to a title indicates that I personally have read and enjoyed this book. In fact, it may very well be in my own library.

You may scroll down the page to view all the books and options, or use the quick links below to jump straight to a certain title.

The Hitchhiker Series: My favorite science fiction/comedy series of all time. Earthling Arthur Dent escapes his home planet minutes before it's destroyed to make way for a new hyperspace bypass. He soon finds himelf touring the galaxy with such friends as the terminally cool Ford Prefect, the two-headed Zaphod Beeblebrox, and Marvin the paranoid android. Learn the ultimate answer to life, the universe and everything--and even more importantly, the reason why you should never leave home without your towel.

The Restaurant at the End of the Universe
Life, the Universe and Everything
So Long and Thanks for All the Fish
Mostly Harmless
Compilations, Etc.


The Dirk Gently Series : Dirk Gently is a slightly psychic detective who takes on only the most unusual of cases: those involving ghosts, time travel, Norse gods, and one extremely hot potato. Some trivia for you: The plot of Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency is a reworking of the Doctor Who episode of "City of Fear," which Adams also wrote.

The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul
Salmon of Doubt: A Dirk Gently Novel

Last Chance to See: This is Adam's only semi-serious book, and even it manages to be sadly amusing--and fascinating. The author spent a year touring the planet with a noted biologist, studying some of our most endangered species. His descriptions of both the people and animals he encounters are unforgettable.
