It's the 90s edition of the Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It normally has an ugly dust jacket on it. Back to the Future 2 lied. We still don't have dust repellent paper.

There's a local historical area I go to often with my family. There are always some morons out there preaching as this is a pretty big tourist spot. I am always tempted to take my copy of HHG2G and just start reading it.

Check Barnes and Noble. A couple years back I got the complete hardcover for less than $3.

It was this version, apparently not the newest edition, not sure how anything could have changed though.

I've never seen that cover before! I read the first book - Heinemann version back in 2000. The rest were from Pan Books. I got myself an omnibus edition last year. but the new edition's cover of the individual books looks good as well. kinda reminds me of the Jetsons.

edit : found the UK 2009 versions - and totally want.

I could certainly use this sort of humor in my life

Also, welcome to RaoA! And good on your for choosing subjectively. I love to see contests that don't rely on reddit raffle. :)

The authros are bnot in an specific order, but the books under each one are in suggested reading order for leisure maximization:

Douglas Adams

  • The Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy (I recommend The ultimate edition which contains the 5 books plus the short story)

    Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels

  • The Colour of Magic
  • The Light Fantastic (sequel of the above)
  • Mort
  • Try to follow the advice from this image about reading order

    Aldous Huxley

  • Brave New World

    I would also add to deltatag's choir about George Orwell's 1984.

Thank you so much. I don't know which book you mean, so I'll link both and let you pick. Please buy used, as there's no need to spend extra on a new copy if I'm going to re-cover it, so obviously the condition doesn't matter.

HGtG:
http://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Hitchhikers-Guide-Unabridged-published/dp/B00E6T900M/ Here's the second version that I owned.

http://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Hitchhikers-Guide-Douglas-Adams/dp/0517149257/ Here's is a cheaper version, but should have all of the same content.

Story of Mankind: http://www.amazon.com/Story-Mankind-Complete-Unabridged-Illustrations/dp/B00589YDDS/ This is the version I had from 1921, I think.

I'll PM you my address. I remember you from sending me "Thank You for Smoking" when you offered it a while back so I definitely owe you something good.

Oops, I just noticed this. >.> Also, no, there's really not much difference, cept that the Ultimate edition is all 5 books in a collection. Amazon link - look at the cover, it lists all the books within. If that's not what you were asking about, whoops, sorry. @.@

Woo! I have this myself, only by now it's been so well-loved that it looks like an antique that you need gloves to handle, lol! Glad I could steer you towards something I hope you love. :D
