Summary
Following the smash-hit sci-fi comedy The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe is the second part in Douglas Adams' multi media phenomenon and cult classic series, read by Martin Freeman.
If you've done six impossible things this morning, why not round it off with breakfast at Milliways, the Restaurant at the end of the Universe?
Which is exactly what the crew of the Heart of Gold plan to do. There's just the small matter of escaping the Vogans, avoiding being taken to the most totally evil world in the Galaxy and teaching a spaceship how to make a proper cup of tea.
And did anyone actually make a reservation?
Follow Arthur Dent's galactic (mis)adventures in the rest of the trilogy with five parts: Life, the Universe and Everything, So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish, and Mostly Harmless.

Oh yes, old chap
Great book. Great series. it continues to make me laugh in its confusing and shocking story. I preferred the first book however the characters introduced in this one are hilarious. I'm now that weird guy on the bus who laughs to himself on the way to college.
I was apprehensive about this installment at first. The first one I listened to was done by Stephen Fry and though it was a bit annoying getting used to the new voices I think Martin Freeman did a brilliant job. In particular the Captain of Ark B and number 2.

Still true after all these years
This explains almost all you need to know about the history of mankind, its evolution and why humans mustn't pollute any other planet..
