Life, the Universe, and Everything

This book is the third in Douglas Adams's cult classic trilogy (of which there are five parts) sci-fi comedy adventure. In this instalment, having been trapped on prehistoric Earth for about five years, Arthur and Ford escape through an eddy in the space-time continuum (on a sofa, no less) and find themselves at Lord's Cricket Ground, only for evil robots left over from an ancient galactic war to disrupt things - they are rescued by a friend with a spaceship/bistro, and go on to rejoin their Trillian, Zaphod and Marvin to avert the robots from rekindling the enormous galaxy-threatening war. During the course of all this, Arthur also meets his archnemesis and learns to fly. It's pretty zarking hoopy.
