The Novels of H. G. Wells Volume Two: The War in the Air, The Sleeper Awakes, and The Time Machine
Three thrilling and thoughtful works of science fiction from a literary giant.
 
From one of the great writers and thinkers of the modern era, this volume includes three brilliant novels.
 
The War in the Air: Filled with petrol-powered war machines, ironclads, bombardments, and espionage, this novel, a cornerstone of early science fiction, prophesied methods of warfare that would only develop later in the twentieth century.
 
The Sleeper Awakes: After falling into a drug-induced sleep in 1897 London, a man is stunned to wake in the year 2100 to a world he does not know—but this world knows him—in this prophetic, unsettling novel about technology and humanity.
 
The Time Machine: A scientist journeys hundreds of thousands of years into the future to discover how humanity has evolved—and while Earth may seem radically different on the surface, some things have remained the same . . . belowground.

About The Author
The son of a professional cricketer and a lady's maid, H. G.

While he is best remembered for his groundbreaking science fiction novels, including The Time Machine, The War of the Worlds, The Invisible Man, and The Island of Doctor Moreau, Wells also wrote extensively on politics and social matters and was one of the foremost public intellectuals of his day.
