Proponents of atavism, entropy at work, leaving the ruins of a dead culture. It remains for us to live as though it were not so.

I went into the book not expecting much and was pleasantly surprised. Wells does a great job world building and making a convincing depiction of the future. Everything seems well planned and intentional for the most part. And any elements that feel incorrect feel as though they're intentionally written to showcase the unreliable nature of the narrator. I also think there are some really good messages about the future of our society.

A piece of fiction from another time. When science fiction was almost anything you wanted. There was no science fomr most things so you could write about anything and marvel the masses. Nowadays SF is another thing. You've got a dozen branchs but almost none are so innovating as Wells or Verne where on their days. The Golden Age of SF (and the Silver Age) have passed. But on this book in particular is a tale about time traveling. And what a journey it is. I really enjoy reading about the main character and the Morlocks. A fine tale that anyone should read it even if in the end they don't enjoy it. After all we are used to Star Wars, Star Trek or Avatar and now reading this novel is like seeing a movie from the 30/40's. The movie made last decade is also a good movie. Check it out. The book itself will not be for all people...

It took 30 pages to make sense but you know what… this wasn’t half bad. Also, can someone go find Weena because miss gurl was snatched and never seen again??
