The Time Machine & 11 Other Stories by H.g. Wells

The Time Machine is a novel by H. G. Wells, first published in 1895 and later directly adapted into at least two theatrical films of the same name as well as at least one television and a large number of comic book adaptations. It indirectly inspired many more works of fiction in all media. Considered by many to be one of the greatest science fiction novels of all time, this 38,000 word novella is generally credited with the popularization of the concept of time travel using a vehicle that allows an operator to travel purposefully and selectively. The term "time machine", coined by Wells, is now universally used to refer to such a vehicle. Also included in this book are 11 additional stories by Wells, including: "The Stolen Body" "The Lord of the Dynamos" "A Dream of Armageddon" "The Triumphs of a Taxidermist" "The Hammerford Park Burglary" "The Cone" "The Door in the Wall" "The Flying Man" "The Diamond Maker" "The Magic Shop" "A Moonlight Fable"
