Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy questions

[spunkybaby]

I haven't read the book(s).... My son will be 14 at Christmas.... Is there something "adult" about these books that should concern me?

Thanks!

There are definitely references to um... "adult activities" throughout the Hitchhiker series, and I remember being surprised that there was an entire chapter explicitly devoted to such activities. I think it was in So Long and Thanks for All the Fish (book 4) when Arthur met up with Fenchurch, but it's been a long time since I read the series.

This thread is giving me happy memories. You can learn a lot about a person by their reaction when you tell them not to panic and to grab their towel.

Thank you everyone for the information. I will look for the ultimate guide.

My husband bought the Barnes & Noble hardcover collectible edition back in September when they had a 40% off coupon and I think the book looks pretty cool: http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/barn...=9780307291813

Thanks for the specific book suggestions. I have the book at Barnes & Noble on hold and I ordered a couple t-shirts and the DVD from Amazon. Birthday is in December.... maybe I can carefully and secretly read the first book before I give it to him to be on the same page. I love how several of you are remembering the book fondly. : )

Thank you all for the help!

There are also some great shirts and newly-introduced SOCKS at Out of Print Clothing.

I want the socks, myself.
