Slipcases: slight wear to edges, covers & spine (see picture). ; 19.9 x 13.2 x 7 cms; The Hitchhiker's Trilogy Box Set (2002) is a collection of Douglas Adams’ iconic and absurdly witty science fiction series, which, despite the term "trilogy", includes five novels. This special edition brings together the full sequence of books charting the misadventures of hapless Earthman Arthur Dent after the destruction of Earth to make way for a hyperspace bypass. With the aid of the eccentric alien Ford Prefect, the two-headed Galactic President Zaphod Beeblebrox, the depressed robot Marvin, and astrophysicist Trillian, Arthur explores the mysteries of the universe armed only with a towel and The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. The set includes The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, where Arthur is first flung into space and learns the importance of not panicking; The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, a surreal journey to the end of time itself; Life, the Universe and Everything, involving a quest to save the universe from a deadly race of xenophobes; So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish, a more Earth-bound love story with dolphins and weather gone awry; and Mostly Harmless, a darker, more fragmented finale that questions the nature of reality and identity. Blending satire, philosophy, and slapstick science fiction, the 2002 box set is a definitive edition for fans old and new, capturing Adams’ uniquely British blend of cosmic chaos and existential comedy..
