From novels, articles, essays, to countless short stories, a few biographies, and even works on history, politics, sociology and various other topics--H. G. Wells' works are diverse in nature, garnering appreciation from readers and critics alike. In this exquisite hardbound edition, there exist three novels which stand apart from all others. They are a testament to the prestigious title of 'the father of science fiction' that has been accorded to Wells--The War of the Worlds, a story of a world reeling under attack by extra-terrestrials, The Invisible Man, which narrates the surreal tale of a young man as he roams around invisible to all, and The Time Machine, which captures the adventures and misadventures of the characters when they travel through time. This is an edition that holds Wells' best writing ever.
