The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is the first of six books in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy comedy science fiction "hexalogy" by Douglas Adams. The novel is an adaptation of the first four parts of Adams's radio series of the same name. The novel was first published in London on 12 October 1979. It sold 250,000 copies in the first three months.

The namesake of the novel is The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, a fictional guide book for hitchhikers (inspired by the Hitch-hiker's Guide to Europe) written in the form of an encyclopaedia.

3 stars

No soy aficionado a las novelas de ciencia-ficción ni tampoco a las de humor especialmente, pero sentía curiosidad por este título desde hacía tiempo por su aura pop de culto y tenía ganas de comprobar cómo mezclaba ambos géneros.

En términos generales logra ser ágil y entretenido, aunque más al inicio y al final y menos por en medio, cuando se ocupa de ampliar los horizontes del universo narrativo (literalmente, recordemos que va de viajeros espaciales). Algo de esperar, en tanto que Douglas Adams era quizá guionista antes que literato y... ya se sabe lo que pasa con la sacrosanta norma de que el principio y el final enganchen y sorprendan.

Me gusta su manera muy personal y arriesgada de usar los deus ex machina (algo ajeno a la historia que aparece de repente y resuelve los problemas, ejemplo desde Aristóteles de lo que no hay que hacer) para insinuar …

This was a radio play first?!?

I had no idea! I’ve read the Hitchhiker’s books before, and I knew it was performed for radio, but I always thought the book came first.

As for the radio version, the Primary Phase is a delight. The voice actors are all top notch, especially Stephen Moore as Marvin the Paranoid Android, and the writing was so ahead of its time for the 70s (and the 80s and 90s, for that matter). I would easily pay 30 Alterian dollars a day to listen to this again and again.

Review of "The hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy" on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

Most of the fun stems from its unpredictability. There are also some hilarious quotes in here. But, besides its gags, it doesn't have a lot to offer. The only theme to it is that (human) life is largely insignificant. But it's only explored superficially. Especially when rereading, the book can become somewhat of a bore.
