BooksAnd Another Thing Books Douglas Adams Eoin Colfer Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy science fiction
Daily Dose Pick: And Another Thing…
1:13 pm Monday Nov 2, 2009 by Chelsea Bauch

And Another Thing… is the sixth installment in Douglas Adams’ Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy “trilogy,” and the first not written by Adams himself.

Artemis Fowl author Eoin Colfer was handpicked by Adams’ estate to continue the series, which all began with Earth’s demolition for a hyperspace bypass. Featuring characters both new and old — including a lovelorn alien and a cheese-based god — And Another Thing… is delightfully faithful to the cult-classic saga.

Listen to the BBC radio adaptation of And Another Thing…, explore the companion website, and buy the book.

Having been a huge fan of the Hitchhikers series, I think that Eoin Colfer is a perfect fit to continue the legacy.

Only someone with one head would say such a thing.
