Mostly Harmless

Now celebrating the 42nd anniversary of The Hitchhiker s Guide to the Galaxy, soon to be a Hulu original series!

Hitchhiker fans rejoice! . . . [Here s] more of the same zany nonsensical mayhem. The New York Times Book Review

It s easy to get disheartened when your planet has been blown up and the woman you love has vanished due to a misunderstanding about space/time. However, instead of being disheartened, Arthur Dent makes the terrible mistake of starting to enjoy life a bit and immediately all hell breaks loose.

Hell takes a number of forms: there s the standard Ford Prefect version, in the shape of an all-new edition of The Hitchhiker s Guide to the Galaxy, and a totally unexpected manifestation in the form of a teenage girl who startles Arthur Dent by being his daughter when he didn t even know he had one. 

Can Arthur save the Earth from total multidimensional obliteration Can he save the Guide from a hostile alien takeover Can he save his daughter, Random, from herself Of course not. He never works out exactly what is going on. Will you
