Sixth book in Hitchhiker's "trilogy" announced

Douglas Adams' death was a sad event years ago, but even with the release of chapters in The Salmon of Doubt, his works felt pretty much completed. While he was ostensibly working on a sequel to (in some ways) both Dirk Gently and the Hitchhiker's Guide, neither series really needed it.
