The Food of the Gods and How It Came to Earth by H.G. Wells

4.0

The story begins with contemplation, progresses with discovery, the consequences of said discovery, and then the acceptance of its existence. The story moves along slowly in some places and more quickly in others. I really enjoyed how people feared what happened to common animals and plants. Some of the parts about the effect on babies dragged on. Although, the underlying political tone was a surprise. I could see the religious/political "savior" of the people barking about what needs to be done. Then seeing results that weren't expected. There are a few gold nuggets in this read. I recommend it to those who can be patient to receive them.
