The H.G. Wells Appreciation Thread
Checking for some more novels I may want to read by H.G. Wells I found out that today would have been his 145th or maybe that's 144th birthday.
Happy Birthday H.G.. Thanks for all the great stories you gave us. Last edited by HomeInMyShoes; 09-21-2011 at 04:51 PM. Reason: grammar which is probably still sadly wrong |

I'm thinking of starting Tono-Bungay. It's either that or In the Days of the Comet.

I haven't read Tono-Bungay. But I started reading "The Door In The Wall And Other Stories" which is just a collection of short stories by Wells. I usually read them on my phone when I've forgot my Reader and am bored waiting somewhere and just want a short story to read.

The Time Machine is my all time fave. I've read it half a dozen times.
