Editor's Note

Few writers changed the possibilities of science fiction as profoundly as H. G. Wells. Read together, these two novels reveal the remarkable range of his imagination: one travels across time to question the future of humanity, while the other turns its gaze outward to imagine how fragile civilization might become when confronted by something beyond its control. This deluxe sprayed-edge edition gives two foundational works of science fiction a presentation worthy of their enduring influence.

Why We Selected This Book

Because these are not simply science-fiction classics — they helped shape the genre itself. Wells combines extraordinary ideas with questions about progress, class, evolution, empire and humanity's confidence in its own superiority. The deluxe hardback format and sprayed edges make this edition especially appealing to collectors and readers who value beautifully presented classics.

Who Will Enjoy This Book

  • Readers of classic science fiction, speculative fiction and dystopian literature.
  • Fans of authors such as Jules Verne, George Orwell and Arthur C. Clarke, and collectors looking for distinctive editions of literary classics.
  • Readers interested in the origins of time travel, alien invasion and far-future fiction — ideas that became central to modern science fiction.
