As a young journalist, Neil Gaiman was given complete access to Adams\u2019s life, times, gossip, unpublished outtakes, and files (and became privy to his writing process, insecurities, disillusionments, challenges, and triumphs). The resulting volume illuminates the unique, funny, dramatic, and improbable chronicle of an idea, an incredibly tall man, and a mind-boggling success story.<\/p>\n<p>In Don\u2019t Panic, Gaiman celebrates everything Hitchhiker: the original radio play, the books, comics, video and computer games, films, television series, record albums, stage musicals, one-man shows, the Great One himself, and towels. And as Douglas Adams himself attested: \u201cIt\u2019s all absolutely devastatingly true\u2014except the bits that are lies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Updated several times in the thirty years since its original publication, Don\u2019t Panic is available for the first time in digital form. Part biography, part tell-all parody, part pop-culture history, part guide to a guide, Don\u2019t Panic \u201cdeserves as much cult success as the Hitchhiker\u2019s books themselves\u201d (Time Out).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Suddenly available on kindle, and right now, for two buck.
