Douglas Adams rules!! The author of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy wrote this bizarre adventure of a hapless detective who does some time travel, meets an Electric Monk (an artificial intelligence creation that was created to believe in things when people were too busy) and helps Gordon Way decide what he is supposed to do now that he is dead.

I loved this book -- laugh out loud funny -- and was glad to find it at the Friends of the Library book sale at the Gaithersburg Book Festival yesterday. Next Friday (5/25) is Towel Day, an international day to honor and remember the incomparable Douglas Adams, whom we lost entirely too soon -- I will be wild releasing this book so that someone else may discover the zany wonders of his work.

Released 11 yrs ago (5/25/2012 UTC) at On a parking meter in -- Highways, roadsides, and services, District of Columbia USA

WILD RELEASE NOTES:

HAPPY TOWEL DAY! Today we celebrate the life of author Douglas Adams, who taught us never to leave home on an interstellar journey without your towel ( http://towelday.org/ ). Here is a free copy of one of his books -- and a towel, just in case you forgot your own. Enjoy!

Left on a parking meter on 5th Street NW, between G and H.
