The Time Traveller had constructed a machine capable of traveling through time and had taken a trip to 800,000 years into the future. There, he discovered that mankind had evolved into two species, the gentle, childlike Elois, who live in a paradise on the surface, and the hideous, subterranean Morlocks who operate the machinery which manufactures the Elois garments and toys. Eventually, the Time Traveller makes a friend of the gentle Weena and together they explore this new world, taking them to the world below where the Morlocks hide a terrifying secret. A new edition of this brilliant novel by H.G.Wells with illustrations by award winning sci-fi illustrator Nicola Cuti.
