''And Another Thing...'' is the sixth installment of Douglas Adams' ''The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy'' "trilogy". The book, written by Eoin Colfer, author of the ''Artemis Fowl'' series, was published on the thirtieth anniversary of the first book, 12 October 2009, in hardback. It was published by Penguin Books in the UK and by Hyperion Books in the US. Colfer was given permission to write the book by Adams' widow Jane Belson. Unlike the previous ''Hitchhiker's'' works, the title is not a quotation from the first novel, but taken from the third chapter of ''So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish'', where it appears in the following passage: ==Background== Prior to his death, Adams had felt the need to continue the story: "I suspect at some point in the future I will write a sixth ''Hitchhiker'' book...", and "People have said, quite rightly, that ''Mostly Harmless'' is a very bleak book. I would love to finish ''Hitchhiker'' on a slightly more upbeat note, so five seems to be a wrong kind of number; six is a better kind of number." In referring to the ''Dirk Gently'' book he was then working on, Adams said, "A lot of the stuff which was originally in ''The Salmon of Doubt'' really wasn't working." Before he died, Adams had planned on "salvaging some of the ideas that I couldn't make work in a Dirk Gently framework and putting them in a Hitchhiker framework... and for old time's sake I may call it ''The Salmon of Doubt''."
