About the Product
  • Right before Earth gets blown out of space to make room for a galactic freeway, Arthur Dent is plucked off the planet by his friend Ford Prefect. He thought Ford was an out-of-work actor, but it turns out he's a researcher for The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. And also an alien.

don't do it, it's a scam
This is the audio for only the first book in the classic trilogy, which actually had 4 books, then a short story, a 5th book, then a book that merged ideas from another of the author's series into a quasi-book-6, then an actual 6th book from a different author after the original author's death.

If you buy #1, you're going to wind up having to buy all of them. It's not impossible to avoid this outcome, but it is infinitely improbable.

Good deal. I was disappointed to see that the Guide isn't free on Audible Premium Plus, but 99 cents on Chirp is the next best thing.

There is a good chance your closest major-city library system has most/all of the series for free in audio book format with a library card and the Libby/Overdrive app. (Plus a LOT more!) If you are into audio books and haven't heard of this app/system, then I encourage you to "check it out".

Instead of doing this, get the BBC radio play. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kGcqifzngc
