Hitchhiker's Guide Poster Set: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe & Life, the Universe and Everything

For anyone who knows exactly where their towel is, this trio celebrates Douglas Adams's endlessly inventive galaxy-hopping saga. Three prints, one glorious slice of comic science fiction, ready to bring a little chaos and wit to your walls.

Why these three belong together

These are the first three books in Douglas Adams's much-loved series, following Arthur Dent from the destruction of Earth right through to the far reaches of time and space. Hung together, they trace the escalating absurdity and heart of the story, a set for readers who return to this galaxy again and again.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (1979)

Arthur Dent's morning goes from bad to catastrophic when Earth is demolished to make way for a hyperspace bypass. Rescued by his alien friend Ford Prefect, he ends up aboard the stolen starship Heart of Gold, in the company of the two-headed Zaphod Beeblebrox, the melancholy robot Marvin and planet designer Slartibartfast. It is the book that launched a much-loved series of wit, wonder and mild existential dread.

The Restaurant at the End of the Universe (1980)

Still fleeing hostile Vogons, Arthur, Ford, Zaphod and Trillian find themselves booking a table at Milliways, the famous restaurant that exists at the very end of time itself. Along the way they continue their search for meaning, or at least a decent explanation, across an indifferent and often ridiculous universe. It is a sequel that widens the scope while keeping the humour razor sharp.

Life, the Universe and Everything (1982)

Plucked from prehistoric Earth by Slartibartfast, Arthur and Ford are thrust into a race to stop the sinister Krikkit robots reassembling the Wikkit Gate, a weapon capable of ending the universe entirely. It is a story that blends galactic peril with the series' trademark deadpan charm, proving that even the fate of everything can be delightfully absurd.

Styling your Hitchhiker's Guide wall

Hang this trio in reading order along a landing, above a desk, or in a study where fans of clever, funny science fiction will spot it instantly. This set comes in Modern, Modern Minimalist and Square styles, so you can pick whichever suits your space, from bold graphic shapes to something cleaner and more understated. Framed in oak, black or white, or left unframed for your own touch, all three prints work best kept in matching styles and frames for a cohesive, gallery-ready finish. Remember, buying any three prints saves you 20%, so this is the perfect excuse to complete the set.
