    Wells is one of my favourite writers, and these two stories are of his best. Science may have come a long way now, but the human content of these tales will keep them alive for a long time to come.

    Well a good book if you consider the time period when it was published, more than 100 years ago. Modern science has come too far since then. Though the reasoning still looks passable but somehow I didn't like the writing style of the author much. Tends to be repetitive and insipid sometimes in the narration.

    Fantastic book, a story of possibilities unexplored by man physically but explored by the mind a million times. An adventure with logical reasons.
