5th and final, the title refers very neatly to the ‘expanded entry’ Ford Prefect got into the Hitchikers Guide after being stranded on Earth for 15 years and if you didn’t know that click here to go back to the first book in the series.
An increasingly random plot around multiple dimensions, sandwich making and troubled teenagers actually finishes up quite neatly – but not neatly enough to stop Eoin Colfer writing a sequel.
Even 30 years on this is still a fresh and funny series of stories, whether you read them or listen to the original BBC radio shows. The anarchic, or ‘random’ to use modern parlance, plot, place settings and characters makes them more appealing than a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster!
