Oz Fontecchio tells us of this last-breaking news. Author Eoin Colfer is making a free appearance tonight at the Free Library of Philadelphia (and Fontecchio has beeen asked to introduce him).
“Douglas Adams‘ comic space odyssey, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, began as a BBC radio series in the 1970s and evolved into a wildly successful series of novels. Now, 30 years after the publication of the first Hitchhiker novel comes And Another Thing…. Sanctioned by the Adams estate and written by Eoin Colfer, the number one bestselling author of the Artemis Fowl series, the newest addition to the Hitchhiker series has Adams fans clutching their towels with excitement, outrage, terror, enthusiasm, and many well-wishes.”
The event starts at 7:30PM on Monday 19 October 2009 at Central Library, 1901 Vine Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. For more information (though you’re running a bit late), call 215-567-4341.
