A dystopian science fiction novel centred on a man who sleeps for 203 years, waking up in a transformed London in which he has become the richest man in the world. Herbert George (HG) Wells was an English writer, prolific in many genres. He wrote dozens of novels, short stories, and works of social commentary, history, satire, biography and autobiography. His work also included two books on recreational war games. Well-known and respected as a social commentator in his life time, Wells is perhaps best remembered for his pioneering science fiction and futurism works, including The Time Machine and the War of the Worlds. We have many more first and early editions of H G Wells' books in stock. Please inquire for a discount if considering ordering more than one volume.
