<\/span>This posthumous cash in contains random articles, essays, speeches and letters written by Adams before he died as well as a hitchhiker’s based short story and the chunk of a Dirk Gently book that never was that gives this volume a title.
\nNo single part of this book is worth buying it for, but as a whole it is a nice reminder of who Douglas Adams was, what he stood for and the work he was capable of.
\nI bought this book not long after it made paperback for less than half price in a supermarket. I don’t know I would have bothered if it wasn’t so cheap. That I only just got round to reading it speaks volumes as far as I’m concerned.
\nMy recommendation, unless you’re a Hitchhiker’s nut, is that you don’t buy this for less than a bargain price.\n<\/p>\n
