Tales of Space and Time: Five Journeys to the Edges of the Possible

Five extraordinary visions from the master of scientific romance, ranging across the stars and into deep time. A cyclist stumbles into a battle fought a thousand years in the future. A crystal egg reveals a window onto the surface of Mars. A rogue star grazes the Earth and rewrites the map of the world. In this landmark collection, H. G. Wells turns his restless imagination toward space and time themselves — building five self-contained worlds, each stranger and more haunting than the last. Tales of Space and Time showcases Wells at his most inventive, the same imaginative daring that produced The Time Machine and The War of the Worlds distilled into shorter, sharper bursts of wonder and unease.

- Five complete stories, including "The Crystal Egg" and "The Star" - Foundational works of early science fiction, still gripping today - Perfect introduction to Wells for readers of short speculative fiction A century before science fiction had a name, Wells was already writing its future classics.
