Don' t Panic

It's all devastatingly true - except the bits that are lies -Douglas Adams. Upon publication Don't Panic quickly established itself as the definitive companion to Adams's life and work. This newly revised edition comes right up to date, covering his recent work and his untimely death in May 2001. Don't Panic celebrates the life of Douglas Adams who, in a field in Innsbruck in 1971, had an idea that became The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: the radio series that started it all, the five book 'trilogy', the TV series, almost-film, and everything that followed. Acclaimed author Neil Gaiman also tells the story of the other projects Douglas worked on, including his posthumous collection The Salmon of Doubt.
