Now celebrating the 42nd anniversary of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, soon to be a Hulu original series! “A madcap adventure . . . Adams’s writing teeters on the fringe of inspired lunacy.”—United Press International Back on Earth with nothing more to show for his long, strange trip through time and space than a ratty towel and a plastic shopping bag, Arthur Dent is ready to believe that the past eight years were all just a figment of his stressed-out imagination.

God only knows what it all means. Fortunately, He left behind a Final Message of explanation. But since it’s light-years away from Earth, on a star surrounded by souvenir booths, finding out what it is will mean hitching a ride to the far reaches of space aboard a UFO with a giant robot. What else is new? “The most ridiculously exaggerated situation comedy known to created beings . . . Adams is irresistible.”—The Boston Globe

Jon Bradburn, a former air traffic controller at England’s Manchester Airport, is picked up by aliens from the planet Zel. After interrogation, he is persuaded to become a “teacher of men.” It’s become obvious to the Zellians that humankind is nearing the point where self-destruction is imminent, consuming Earth in atomic warfare. Jon is the last in a long line of “teachers” provided by the Zellians, being “prepared and modified” mentally and physically for the role he will have to play. He is endowed with superhuman strength and intelligence, as well as the promise of longevity beyond that of all men. Accompanied by a young female Zellian (only eighty years old) named Lana, who will be Jon’s mentor and companion until the stability of Earth is assured, Jon sets out to educate the men of all nations how to live in peace. But first all nuclear weapons must be disabled or destroyed. As the teacher, Jon is in contact with the most powerful leaders in the world, particularly Davis Cooper, president of the United States, who proves to be a staunch ally. Their aim is to bring peace, prosperity, and long life to all humankind. Is their dream possible?
