Dirk Gently's Holisitic Detective Agency: What do a dead cat, a computer whiz-kid, an Electric Monk who believes the world is pink, quantum mechanics, a 200-year-old Chronologist, Samuel Taylor Coleridge (poet) and pizza have in common? Apparently not much - until Dirk Gently, self-styled private investigator, sets out to prove the fundamental interconnectedness of all things by solving a mysterious murder, assisting a mysterious professor, unravelling a mysterious mystery and eating a lot of pizza - not to mention saving the human race from extinction along the way - at no extra charge. The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul: When a passenger check-in desk at Terminal Two, Heathrow Airport, suddenly explodes through the roof engulfed in flame, the usual people tried to claim responsibility - the IRA, the PLO and the Gas Board. Even British Nuclear Fuels rushed out a statement to the effect that the situation was under control, it was a one in a million chance, there was hardly any radioactive leakage and the explosion site would make a nice day out with the kids and a picnic - before finally admitting that it wasn't actually anything to do with them at all. There was no rational cause for the explosion - so it was designated an act of God. But, thinks Dirk Gently, which God? And why ? What God would be hanging around Heathrow's Terminal Two trying to catch the 15.37 to Oslo? Cover art by Chris Moore.
