It all began when Douglas Adams destroyed planet Earth to create an intergalactic expressway, inviting readers to join a humorous cosmic road trip with characters like Arthur Dent and Ford Prefect. Adams transformed the universe into a funnier place, altering our perceptions of towels, extraterrestrial poetry, and the number 42. His untimely passing left many wondering about this tall Englishman who fused science fiction with absurdist humor, resulting in a five-book "trilogy" that became a global cult phenomenon. Even if you've experienced the Restaurant at the End of the Universe, you've only glimpsed the quirky, endearing Adams mystique. He was the unofficial member of Monty Python’s Flying Circus, the first Macintosh computer buyer, and the only author to perform a guitar solo with Pink Floyd. Known for missing deadlines, he was once confined by his editor to ensure completion. Adams also created the computer game Starship Titanic and championed wildlife causes. Longtime friend Nick Webb reveals Adams' contradictions: a tech-savvy gift giver, a timid soul, and a brilliant yet egotistical intellect. In just forty-nine years, Adams lived more lives than most, pursuing diverse interests with energy. This reflection on his life is a celebration filled with anecdotes, humor, and heartfelt insights, making it a cherished tribute for fans of his unique world.
