Description
Two of the greatest science fiction classics of all time...in one collection! H.G. Wells (1866 -1946) - the master of the genre - created his "scientific romances" and set the standard for futuristic literature that teemed with both social commentary and a prescient view of the world to come. Here, we present "The Invisible Man" and "The War of the Worlds," two of the most popular and thrilling science fiction novels ever created...together in one volume. First, travel with a scientist named Griffin who develops an ingenious serum that can render people completely invisible. Taking it himself, Griffin begins a slow descent into insanity...and murder. Then...follow the Narrator as he describes the unthinkable: a deadly and terrifying invasion of Earth by the inhabitants of Mars. The Martians enjoy the advantage of superior technological advances combined with a ruthless desire to conquer humanity and enslave them. Can mankind survive? Enjoy these two classics by the "father of science fiction." This volume includes a brief biography of the author.
