I am a huge Hitchhiker's Guide fan, having been first introduced to it in my last year of high school (in 1981) by my grade 13 Chemistry teacher, Mr. Delamatter, one of the most influential teachers I had. He'd passed his copy to a buddy of mine in our little group, and it quickly made the rounds of all of us, before getting it back to our teacher. Since then, I've read it, and all the sequels (yes, even the sixth one) multiple times. So when I stumbled on this book accidentally in a used book shop...a Hitchhiker's Guide written by Neil Gaiman? Hell yes, I'm in. And it was pretty much everything I'd hoped for, written in a similarly irreverent style to Adams, delivering quick hits of facts, and little dollops of humour along the way. It really is a great little companion to the series. Affettuosa e ironica biografia del più famoso autore di Fantascienza del mondo. Mi ha fatto venire una gran voglia di ascoltare il programma radio che ha dato origine alla Guida Galattica . Consiglio spassionato: se sapete l'inglese, Gaiman va ascoltato. I suoi audiolibri sono narrati da lui stesso, e vi assicuro che ha una voce che Omero spostati. This compendium is for the most super of Douglas Adams superfans.

Referencias a esta obra en fuentes externas. Wikipedia en inglés (8)Douglas Adams's "six-part trilogy," The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy grew from a blip of a notion into an ever-expanding multimedia universe that amassed an unprecedented cult of followers and became an international sensation. As a young journalist, Neil Gaiman was given complete access to Adams's life, times, gossip, unpublished outtakes, and files (and became privy to his writing process, insecurities, disillusionments, challenges, and triumphs). The resulting volume illuminates the unique, funny, dramatic, and improbable chronicle of an idea, an incredibly tall man, and a mind-boggling success story. In Don't Panic, Gaiman celebrates everything Hitchhiker: the original radio play, the books, comics, video and computer games, films, television series, record albums, stage musicals, one-man shows, the Great One himself, and towels. And as Douglas Adams himself attested: "It's all absolutely devastatingly true-except the bits that are lies." Updated several times in the thirty years since its original publication, Don't Panic is available for the first time in digital form. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

It was interesting to read about the processes, history, and background of some of the incarnations of Adams' creation. So much I never knew about the series. Some I want to experience myself. Some I have no need to.
If you're a fan of the HHGTTG series in any way, this is a decent read. If you're not ... don't bother; there's a LOT of stuff you won't know, understand, or care about. ( )
