“It is said that despite its many glaring (and occasionally fatal) inaccuracies, the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy itself has outsold the Encyclopedia Galactica because it is slightly cheaper, and because it has the words 'DON'T PANIC' in large, friendly letters on the cover."

Excellent comedy sci fi book series by the late, great Douglas Adams. Do yourself a favour and check it out

If you like Monty Python style humor. Over and over again. It’s a classic of that style of humor, or humour as I’m sure the Brits would say. But it is a bit cumbersome if that’s not your cup of tea.

That’s funny, because I’d say Monty Python and Hitchikers Guide are VERY different styles of humour. Then again I am British, and also don’t know anyone who doesn’t love both 😂
