H. G. Wells
Born Herbert George Wells in Kent in 1866, H. G. Wells was an outspoken socialist and pacifist, whose works caused some controversy. He is more widely known as a science fiction writer for the novels that he published between 1895 and 1901: The Time Machine, The Island of Doctor Moreau, The Invisible Man, The War of the Worlds, When the Sleeper Wakes and The First Men in the Moon. All, except for When the Sleeper Wakes, have been made into films.
Along with Jules Verne, H. G. Wells is also known as 'the Father of Science Fiction'.
His later novels were more realistic and he wrote many genres, including contemporary novels, history and social commentary.
H. G. Wells died in 1946.

Samenvatting
In 'The Best of H.G. Wells: The War of the Worlds, The Time Machine & The Invisible Man', readers are treated to a collection of three of Wells' most iconic science fiction novels. Each of these works explores the implications of scientific advancements on society in a thought-provoking and imaginative way. Wells' writing style is characterized by its clear and concise prose, making his complex ideas accessible to a wide audience. Set in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, these novels capture the social anxieties and technological advancements of the time, making them both timeless and relevant to modern readers. The inclusion of these three novels in a single volume allows readers to see the breadth of Wells' imagination and the impact of his work on the science fiction genre. H.G. Wells, a prolific writer and visionary thinker, was deeply influenced by the scientific and social changes occurring during the late Victorian era. His background in biology and his interest in social issues informed his writing, leading him to explore themes of evolution, imperialism, and the potential dangers of unchecked scientific progress in his novels. Wells' works continue to resonate with readers today for their prescient insights into the human condition and their exploration of the ethical implications of scientific discovery. I highly recommend 'The Best of H.G. Wells' to readers interested in classic science fiction and the intersection of science and society. Wells' ability to blend scientific speculation with social commentary makes these novels essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the impact of technological advancements on humanity.
