There should be an image here!Known as a founding father of what would become the science fiction genre, British author Herbert George Wells was born on September 21st, 1866.

H.G. Wells’ imagination prophecized nuclear power, urban sprawl, sexual revolution, and World War II, among other inventions and situations that have come to pass.

Here, in an attractive gift box, are unabridged editions of the five most popular science fiction novels of H. G. Wells: The First Men in the Moon, The Invisible Man, The Time Machine, The Island of Dr. Moreau, and The War of the Worlds, a grippingly realistic tale of hostile invaders from Mars.

    Happy Birthday H.G. Fine reading. Were he alive today, he might feel out of place, as insightfulness seems to have recently gone out of vogue.
