About the Books:
The War of the Worlds imagines a devastating Martian invasion of Victorian England, forcing ordinary people to confront forces beyond their understanding. When the Sleeper Wakes follows a man who wakes two centuries later in a radically transformed London. The Time Machine & Other Stories sends its inventor-narrator hurtling into humanity's distant future. The Invisible Man tells of a scientist whose discovery of invisibility spirals into paranoia and violence. The Island of Doctor Moreau confronts readers with horrifying experiments blending human and animal, probing the ethics of unchecked ambition. The First Men in the Moon recounts an audacious lunar expedition that uncovers a strange civilisation beneath the moon's surface.

About the Author:
Herbert George Wells (1866–1946) was an English writer whose imaginative range made him one of the most influential authors of his era. Best remembered for pioneering science fiction novels including The Time Machine, The War of the Worlds, The Invisible Man and The Island of Doctor Moreau, he was also a prolific essayist on politics, history and social reform. Often celebrated alongside Jules Verne as a father of the genre, Wells's precise, imaginative prose helped define speculative fiction as a serious literary form, inspiring generations of storytellers.
