FF:WA R.I.P. Douglas Adams

DOUGLAS Adams, author of the cult science-fiction comedy "The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy," has died aged 49.

The British-born Adams died yesterday of a heart attack in Santa Barbara, California, his London spokeswoman Sophie Astin said today.

The "Hitch Hiker's Guide," published in 1979, was a satirical adventure about a group of intergalactic travellers; it opens with the Earth being destroyed to make way for an intergalactic highway.

It was turned into a radio serial and a popular British Broadcasting Corp television series, and was followed by the sequels "The Restaurant at the End of the Universe," "Life, the Universe and Everything" and "So Long, and Thanks For All the Fish."

Adams was married with a daughter.
