5.0 out of 5 stars Out of this world!, 28 Nov 2005
By Lew 1 (ENGLAND) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Hitchhiker Trilogy Boxset (Paperback)
I had read all of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy's incarnations individually, mostly from the local library. I am a big fan - but tatty library copies only go so far. When you appreciate a series of books this much, to own the real thing is an absolute must.

This boxset presents all five books in the trilogy (!) nicely in paperback, with a hard box to house them all in. These editions are quite bare-bones, but perfect for reading multiple times - and they all share a cover scheme that is oh-so subtly changed to suit the book you are reading.

Those who have not met with Douglas Adam's most famous works before are in for a reat treat - espcially if you like some witty and intelligent yet slightly off-the-wall humour. This is an excellent way to enjoy the series.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Ultimate Item for the Ultimate Hitchhiker, 29 May 2003
By Andrew Perdiue (San Antonio, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This is truly the ultimate item for the ultimate Hitchhiker's fan who thinks they have everything Douglas Adams ever wrote. There are those who collected the books through the years, but some of us weren't around back then. Celebrating the success of the books, PAN has reissued all the books in facsimile editions the way they were originally published, but in this package you get a nice slipcase for the five books. This is the way to time-travel back to the early days of Hitchhiker and ending with the tragic but enjoyable last book. If you think you have read every word of the Hitchhiker's Trilogy of Five Books, you probably have. But read them again the way they were first published.
