Story
Somewhere on the frontier between thought and reality exists the Discworld, a parallel time and place that might sound and smell very much like our own, but which looks completely different. Particularly as it’s carried though space on the back of a giant turtle (sex unknown). It plays by different rules. But then, some things are the same everywhere. The Disc’s very existence is about to be threatened by a strange new blight: the world’s first tourist, upon whose survival rests the peace and prosperity of the land.

When Lister got drunk, he really got drunk! After celebrating his birthday with a Monopoly-board pub crawl around London, he came to in a burger bar on one of Saturns moons, wearing a lady's pink crimplene hat and a pair of yellow fishing waders, with no money and a passport in the name of "Emily Berkenstein". Joining the Space Corps seemed a good idea.

Join him on a tour of the absurdities of modern life - from Ryanair to Richard III, Downton Abbey to phone etiquette, UKIP to hot dogs made of cats.

For the first time ever, the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society has produced an audio recording of all of Lovecraft's stories.

This collection spans his entire career from his earliest surviving works of childhood to stories completed shortly before his death. All tales include original music by HPLHS composer Troy Sterling Nies.

Publisher's 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.

Great story
Loved Martin Freeman’s narrating, and this story is a winner. But it was a little jarring to go from Stephen Fry (my all time fav narrator) to Martin Freeman. Especially since Zaphod suddenly has a Jersey accent which is annoying at first but you get used to it. Freeman still does a top job.

Why no Fry
After listening to the dulcet tones of Stephen Fry narrating The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. Was really looking forward to this book which is only spoiled by the style of narration. Grimacing through the appalling accents chosen by Martin Freeman spoils the story somewhat and leads only to disappointment that Mr Fry was too busy/expensive/uninterested in narrating this and the rest of the series.

Martin is no Stephen
This sequel is not as good as the first book, but is not helped by not having Stephen Fry on board. Martin Freeman is too monotone.

Martin Freeman can’t compare to Stephen Fry
Of course a fantastic story, but I wish Stephen Fry was narrating! Martin Freeman is terrible in comparison.

Classic cult comedy at its finest. Douglas Adams will never be forgotten. He will outlive "Wowbagger The Infinitley Prolonged" in our hearts and diodes.
