H. G. Wells 4 hr 35 min read

A schoolmaster is blown into another dimension by an experiment gone wrong and returns strangely reversed, one of the eerie, ingenious tales in this collection of Wells's early wonders.

H. G. Wells's 1897 collection gathers some of his finest and strangest short fiction. Inventive, chilling, masterful. Read it for a treasury of early Wells, 'The Plattner Story,' 'The Sea Raiders,' 'The Red Room,' 'In the Abyss,' and more, a dazzling display of the imagination that shaped modern science fiction.
