About the author

H. G. (Herbert George) Wells

1866–1946

A pioneer of modern science fiction, this prolific English writer imagined time travel, alien invasion, and invisible men with a mix of suspense and sharp social insight. His stories still feel lively because they pair big ideas with very human fears and hopes.
