Sobre IBD

An omnibus collection of the early speculative fiction of the godfather of modern science fiction, featuring in particular The Time Machine, the short novel that skyrocketed his long and prolific career. Nineteen short stories and two other novels, including the dark and disturbing Island of Dr. Moreau, comprise this volume of tales that remain as vivid and readable today as when they first bedazzled readers near the end of the 19th century.
