The man with the white face entered the carriage at Rugby. He moved slowly in spite of the urgency of his porter, and even while he was still on the platform I noted how ill he seemed. He dropped into the corner over against me with a sigh, made an incomplete attempt to arrange his travelling shawl, and became motionless, with his eyes staring vacantly. Presently he was moved by a sense of my observation, looked up at me, and put out a spiritless hand for his newspaper. Then he glanced again in my direction.

Autorenporträt
H.G Wells is one of the founding fathers of Science Fiction who, along with Jules Verne, helped define what was then called 'scientific romance.' Born in Bromley, Kent in 1866, his most famous work is arguably The War of the Worlds, where Martian invaders lay waste to great swathes of Surrey. In his stories he predicted spacecraft, aircraft, nuclear power, tanks and something suspiciously like the internet. Many of his most famous works, like the Island of Dr Moreau, explore what man might be capable of - and what the consequences of our actions might be.
