An Englishman's continuing search through space and time for a decent cup of tea . . . Arthur Dent's accidental association with that wholly remarkable book The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy has not been entirely without incident. Arthur has travelled the length, breadth and depth of known, and unknown, space. He has stumbled forwards and backwards through time. He has been blown up, reassembled, cruelly imprisoned, horribly released and colourfully insulted more than is strictly necessary. And, of course, he has comprehensively failed to grasp the meaning of life, the universe and everything.
Arthur has, though, finally made it home to Earth. But that does not mean he has escaped his fate. For Arthur's chances of getting his hands on a decent cuppa are evaporating along with the world's oceans. Because no sooner has he arrived than he finds out that Earth is about to be blown up...again.
And Another Thing...by Eoin Colfer is the rather unexpected, but very welcome, sixth instalment of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy trilogy. It features a pantheon of unemployed gods, everyone's favourite renegade Galactic President, a lovestruck green alien, an irritating computer and at least one very large slab of cheese.

Editorial reviews
And Another Thing: Douglas Adams’ Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy is written by Eoin Colfer and is Part Six of this best-selling sci-fi fantasy audiobook series narrated by captivating English actor Simon Jones. The woes of Arthur Dent continue as he endures his impossible search for a cup of tea. He’s tossed back and forth through space with only a terribly depressed alien for company. Dent’s wild adventures are coupled with an unending search for the meaning of life off Earth as the planet he longs for is destroyed, then replaced, then destroyed again. Available now from Audible.
Enjoyable listen, but I fear a thankless task

Would you try another book from Eoin Colfer and/or Simon Jones?
I love Arthemis Fowl, and I do own all of them, but Eoin Colfer is not Duglas Adems and the story is not as intriguing or as wonderful.If you’ve listened to books by Eoin Colfer before, how does this one compare?
Not at all. I am sorry to sayDid Simon Jones do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?
Yes he is abel to make a good difference between the characters and it is fun to listen to him.Was And Another Thing... worth the listening time?
It is worth it if you walk ore do housework, but not if you sit down only to listen to that.Any additional comments?
It helped to get a closure of the prevues books, but not if you want to have a perfeced book.Slightly sad

Listening to this book brought back fond memories of listening to the previous Douglas Adams H2G2 books, and I enjoyed the wacky stories and the sense of deja vu created by the plot. I enjoyed the humour but felt that the god-bashing was a little overdone, but not gratuitous. I guess it was required by the plot, and raised some interesting philosophical questions, which I enjoyed.
This book doesn't feel like a sequel or a "keep the successful formula going" effort. It has plenty of original ideas and feels fresh and froody. I think it brings the series to an elegant close, and it will take a brave man to write part 7.
