So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish is the fourth book of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Its title is the message left by the >dolphins when they departed Planet Earth just before it was demolished to make way for a hyperspatial express route, as described in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The phrase has since been adopted by some science fiction fans as a humorous way to say "goodbye" and a song of the same name was featured in the 2005 film adaptation of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

This is one of those books you just have to read to believe. It's laugh-out-loud funny more times than a whole season of Red Dwarf and it has more memorable characters than the Bible! Also it has some of the most crazy ideas in the history of literature!

Beneath all the fun and frolics is actually a pretty decent, if utterly over-the-top story. Genuinly funny and definately one of the greatest books in SciFi... A must-read for anyone with a sense of humour!
