I remember there being a collection of the first 3 called the Complete Hitchhiker's Guide. In typical Adam's fashion, after the 4th book was released a new compendium was released called the More than Complete Hitchhiker's Guide. That titling should have continued, so we'd have gotten the Even More than Complete Hitchiker's Guide and, finally, the Completest Complete Hitchiker's Guide.


Hah, yes.

"Mostly Harmless" did have this on the front:

"The fifth book in the increasingly inaccurately named Hitchhikers Trilogy".


Yes! Frank Zappa is the rarest of individuals cut from the same cloth as Adams, and your comment reminded me of his amazing 3rd release of instrumental cuts, aptly titled "Return of the Son of Shut Up 'N Play Your Guitar".
