Danny Wallace wanted to write about a place so special and so crucial to our existence that it had never before been tackled: the Centre of the Universe.

The funniest writer of his generation. Apart from me
Comedy writing doesn't get any better than this - unless you go round Danny's flat and make him add a bit in pen
Join Me is the kind of book I love: effortlessly funny, painfully accurate and entertaining to the very end. Brilliant
Extremely enjoyable. once cannot help wondering whether he has stumbled upon the future shape of spirituality
One of the funniest stories you will ever read
