“This was a very good book. This story takes place in 19th century england. It started out as a man pondering how in our world, we have four dimensions. Three of them are dimensions of space and the last one is a dimension of time. He knew that we could move through the three dimensions of space, but he wondered why we couldn't move through the dimension of time. So, he spent months trying to create a miniture version of his idea of a life size time machine. Once his miniture version was complete, he invited a handful of people that were involved in the scentific community. He had done it! He succesfully created a machine that travels through time. The only problem is that no one believed what they saw. Even though his peers didn't believe him, he still created a large version that a person could travel in. He had taken a test run hundreds of thousands of years into the future to find the world far from what he knew it to be. There was no more animals, for they had gone extinct. The people that roamed the surface only ate the fruits of the earth. There were those though, that lived in tunnels under the earth. They were carnivirious creatures that would eat the people of the surface. When the Time Traveler saw what was happening, he was sickened. He tried in vain to defeat these underdwellers, but the surface dwellers were too afraid of them to fight back. The underdwellers have hidden his time machine. He spent days searching for it, but the underdwellers have stolen his time machine. I have to say that the Time Traveler was my favorite character because even though nobody believed him, he still did what he thought he needed to. I very much enjoyed this book. It was a good read with a lot of suspense and a twisting ending. I would recomend this book to anyone that is looking for a book with a good plot and an interesting storyline.”
