The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

Milliways, the restaurant of the title, has been projected forward in time to the exact moment of the end of the universe. While galactic gourmets sample delectable dishes they watch in total comfort as constellations collide and asteroids explode in what can only be described as the ultimate cabaret.Milliways is just one of the many cosmic venues penetrated by Arthur Dent, escaped earthling, Zaphod Beeblebrox, former president of the imperial galactic government, Marvin the Paranoid Android and others in a further sequence of inadvertent adventures and technicolour catastrophes in outer space.

For followers of 'The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy' on radio and television, Douglas Adams' second book will provide a lasting contribution to a superlative flight of fantasy.
