So anyway, yesterday I brought the book Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy on a whim.
By the lords, it's amazing O.O
Already finished it, just so good I couldn't put it down!
And there should be 5 other books in the series to read. This is the full series:
1) Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy (Or H2G2, which is an awesome shortening that is also sciencey)
2) The Restauant at the End of the Universe. Why oh why didn't I buy this, it was on the shelf >.<'
3) Life, the Universe and Everything (again, on the shelf, why didn't I buy it?)
4) So Long and Thanks for All the Fish.
5) Mostly Harmless
6) And Another Thing (yes, hence the crap title "joke". This is also the only book in the series written by Eoin Colfer... because unfortunately poor Douglas Adams is no longer with us V.V)
MUST READ ALL NOW!
I also realised today just how many epic fictional Arthur's I just happen to love:
Arthur Kirkland (Hetalia)
Arthur Weasley (Harry Potter)
Arthur Pendragon (Shrek 3... what, he was awesome)
Arthur Pendragon (Merlin... was his surname Pendragon? *forgets*)
Most Newly discovered: Arthur Dent (he's the main character from H2G2.)
Most Newly (is that even grammatically correct?) RE-discovered: Arthur Black, who I had started to write about long before most of the other Arthurs came into my life (save Arthur Weasley, because he came in when I was 7). I found a really rubbish story I'd written about him on my hard drive, so I've started re-writing it... in a style oh too similar to H2G2.
I'll probably post it once chapter one's finished.
NEW ARTHURS! (24/08)
Arthur no-surname (Inception. Goddamn, he was epic!)
Arthur I've-forgotten-his-surname-nao (Invisible Detective series)
Arthur I-didn't-know-his-surname-in-the-first-place (Mister Monday series that I need to read)
Also, I have now bought and read H2G2 1,2 and 3

P.s. Instantly my favourite character slot was taken by both Arthur and Ford.
Ford because he had an awesome name and was cool as hell (no wait...that's a bad comparison...cool as the Arctic? Oh poo, now the impact is totally lost, just forget it.)
And Arthur because he reminded me of another Arthur, who also goes by the name of England...
