Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency

Front room black creased a5, Pocket. 1987. (ISBN: 9780671657697). Paperback. Paperback in poor condition, reading copy only, spine lean, brown pages creasing. All pages are there and clean Douglas Adams is the inspired maniac who created the BBC's cult classic "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" and who wrote many of the wittiest episodes of "Dr. Who." In this hilarious novel, he continues the same combination of satire, pure silliness, paradox and ersatz New Age cosmology. Used: Acceptable.

Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency

Front room, New Millennium Audio. 1987. (ISBN: 9781590070598). Audio Cassette, 18.7 x 11 x 3.2 cm. Boxed set of 2 cassettes in good condition, box slightly damaged. What do a dead cat, a computer whiz-kid, an Electric Monk who believes the world is pink, quantum mechanics, a Chronologist over 200 years old, Samuel Taylor Coleridge (poet), and pizza have in common? Apparently not much; until Dirk Gently, self-styled private investigator, sets out to prove the fundamental interconnectedness of all things by solving a mysterious murder, assisting a mysterious professor, unravelling a mysterious mystery, and eating a lot of pizza - not to mention saving the entire human race from extinction along the way (at no extra charge). 'A thumping good detective-ghost-horror-whodunnit-time travel-romantic-musical-comedy epic.' The author. Good.
