Douglas Adams’s Starship Titanic by Terry Jones is a witty science fiction comedy that brings the madcap humour of Douglas Adams’s universe to life in novel form. Originally conceived by Adams as a computer game concept, this 1997 novel was penned by Monty Python’s Terry Jones, based on Adams’s outline. Set within the zany, unpredictable cosmos familiar to The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy fans, this book serves as a standalone adventure filled with satire, absurdity and intergalactic mishaps.
The story follows the ill-fated launch of the Starship Titanic, the galaxy’s most technologically sophisticated and supposedly ‘unsinkable’ luxury space cruiser. Naturally, things go spectacularly wrong. Sabotaged by Antar Brobostigan and his accountant Droot Scraliontis in a harebrained insurance fraud scheme, the ship suffers a Spontaneous Massive Existence Failure and crash-lands on Earth. Three unwitting humans are roped into the chaos, recruited to help repair the ship, dodge an on-board bomb, navigate a quirky computer system, and survive an escalating love triangle involving a roving journalist from the planet Blerontin. True to Adams’s tradition, the plot’s absurdities unfold with relentless and irreverent humour.
