“Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small, unregarded yellow sun.”

With this simple sentence we are introduced to this idea of just how astronomicaly vast our universe is and just how utterly out of our depth that we are. How completely clueless we are regarding the greater universe and space as we percieve it.

The Mood is an interesting mix of dark humor along with paranoia. With the narrator constanly providing explanations for increasingly bizarre concepts that are supposedly the "norm" in the greater universe. Our main character is thrust into a world where he knows absolutely nothing about anything and as a result is left to play catch up, which leaves him either confused, paraniod, frantic, or all three at once.

Most of the characters adventures are actually set in space itself. Our main character starts off on earth, somehow winds up on a spaceship only to board another spaceship, before finally landing on a seemingly dead planet for the final act.

Both Spaceships are described as futuristic, yet somewhat whimsical, almost childlike in design. While the dead planet creates an atmosphere of mystery and intensity that makes the reader want to more about the surronding area.

Arthur Dent is our main character for this book, however he does not play the dashing hero or even the selfless idiot of our main cast. Instead he mostly stays as a confused and frightened human who is just going along with the group becuase they are quite literally the only beings that he knows.

He also is shown to possess quite a one track mind, especially when in danger, however he still remains a kind hearted human who is really just trying his best.

I feel that the almost whimsical nature of the book go together very well with my choice of song. Also let's be honest here is it really a space theme if this song is not here.

When researching about this book I came to learn about its film version and its soundtrack, after listening to them I decided that this song was an accurate representation about the book and the characters journey's throughout it.

Personally I feel that the progression of the music really shows the different stages in the journey our characters face in the book. Additionally his song is just to catchy to not be put on this list.

The Plot of the book follows the life of a man named Arthur Dent, a regular man who lives in England. However coincidentally on the same day that his house is scheduled to be demolished, so is the planet earth itself. So his neighbor, Ford Perfect, turns out to be an actual alien helps him hitch a ride one one of the demolition ships and they escape the destruction of the planet. After they are discovered they are ejected and picked up by a new ship who just so happens to be flown by Ford's cousin Zaphod. They then go on a small journey to a previously lost planet where the space police find them and they narrowly escape, Which ends the book.This is one of the wackiest, and most confusing science fiction story that I have ever read and I enjoyed itlike no other.

“For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much—the wheel, New York, wars and so on—whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man—for precisely the same reasons.”

“Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?”

“You know," said Arthur, "it's at times like this, when I'm trapped in a Vogon airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and about to die of asphyxiation in deep space that I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I was young."
"Why, what did she tell you?"
"I don't know, I didn't listen.”

This book might just be my new favorite Science-Fiction title of all time. I just simply fell in love with its specific dialect and phrases that reminded me so much of another one of my all-time favorite books: The Last Book in the Universe. It was just the right amount of perfectly logical sense and that touch of whimsicalness(Yes I know that I have used this word three times already, but it just describes this book perfectly) that tied it all together. Would recommend, 10/10, Top 10 favorite of all time easily, maybe top 5.
