h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

This appears to be bigger on the inside!

Do you know you're in the book, Deke?

ahhh the book arrived and i've cut the table leg to fit the thickness of the book to perfection

Hi GB
Yes I'm honoured that two and a half of my efforts have been included. I even feel quite inspired to write something new.
Deek

please do. You write the stuff I can't!!!

Congratulations to all.

Just to say I received my copy of Space and Space Travel today.

I really love it. I really reeeeeely love it.

I love the shiny cover, and the layout and everything.

It's light enough to put in my daypack and take to a cafe to study all the articles and pictures.

And I can also arrange it elegantly on the coffee table in the evenings, and it can tell me things.

Its a lovely book, and thanks so much to everyone who was involved in its production.

[ to read it]

It's a good read! It's written in an accessible style (particularly Galaxy Babe's articles) and there are plenty of quirky facts.

aww thank you!

minorvogonpoet it would be nice if you left a review at Amazon and/or turned in a review for a future issue.

It's rather heavy reading despite the really good writing. When I write a review, I might point that out, along with a hope that when the revised edition comes out there will be far more (and larger) illustrations. Granted, I am industrious in my reading habits, but there may be a large group of readers who will enjoy it more if they can look at the pictures and do less reading.

(Yes, I know I'm a heretic.)

I've written my review (as Andrew Robinson). Only gave it four stars, but recommended it highly.

Thanks! Honest is good.

Do you have to approve reviews or something for them to show? Because whenever I stop by, it says there are no reviews. I even opened Chrome, which I've never gone onto Amazon from, to make sure it wasn't a cache deal from my end (not following the link--putting "Hitchhikers Guide Earth" into Amazon's search box) If there's a problem on that end, it should probably be fixed...

There are no US reviews. To see the UK reviews, you have to visit Amazon UK.

It would be nice if a US reader would add a US review, hint...

That makes sense

*ignores hint, as money's tight after UK trip and the family trip we're going on during Christmas break*

I'll see what I can do, but since I bought it from Amazon U.S., why should I review it on Amazon UK?

Don't. Review it on Amazon US, so we have a review on Amazon US.
