    And then there is Starship Titanic, written by a friend of Douglas Adams, altough the story idea was conceived by Adams. I forgot the authors name, but on the back cover there is a photo of him - on a chair, naked with his laptop covering his parts. Apparantly he wrote the book in the nude.

      I much prefer the original BBC radio series, available on CD. Don't accept any copies!

      The books are not a copy! When the radio series was complete, Douglas wanted to make something bigger out of the idea. And he did!

            I was trying to say there are at least two version of the CD/tape one the orgianl BBC series plus an obsure one. Personally I prefer the BBC radio series to the books and TV series, but there again there is no accounting for taste.
