The restaurant at the end of the Universe is the sequel to the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. The main character in the book is Arthur Dent but his character remains mostly uninvolved in the beginning so for now I will talk about Zaphod Beeblebrox who is currently the most active character. Zaphod Beeblebrox is the former President of the Galaxy but his presidential position was revoked after stealing the space ship, ‘the Heart of Gold’. Zaphod is faced with the challenge of escaping the Vogons after the theft of the Heart of Gold.
I believe that Zaphod was put in the book to give it a twist and give you someone to get annoyed at. Also he was needed in the book so he could allow the destruction of the planet Earth. I think he needed to be male and of middle age so his laid back attitude and annoying attitude would have more of an effect.
If Zaphod had been written as a girl the story would be totally different seeing as Zaphod’s charm and charisma would have to be totally different. Also if the character was female the story wouldn’t have the same affect and the book would become much less exciting.

hi henry!
its todd here to comment on your recent diary entry on the main character in the novel you read. It seems that Zaphod is quite an annoying or arrogant person and you make it sound like you have a dislike to him. Dont get too fiesty though as he is only an imaginary character, I don't think you will be able to hunt him down. Anyway i thought your entry was quite comprehensive and written well. Keep up the good work.
Happy writing, Todd
