The collection of works by the English writer Herbert Wells includes his best science fiction novels, which have become a kind of business card of the author and a classic of "warning literature": "The Time Machine" (1895) - a grim narrative about the life of mankind in 802701, "The Island of Dr. Moreau" (1896) and "The Invisible Man" (1897) - stories about astonishing experiments performed by brilliant and mad scientists, who daringly transgress the laws of nature, legal prohibitions and moral norms, and "The War of the Worlds" (1897) - one of the first books on the popular in later literature and cinema theme of alien aggression, threatening the existence of mankind. "When the Sleeper Wakes" (1898-1899)" and "The First Men on the Moon" (1901) - examples of social fiction Wells, which play various negative models of social structure (whether the lunar hierarchical society-"anthill", controlled by the Great Lunarius, or established by the White Council totalitarian regime on Earth at the end of the XXI century) and the possibility of changing them.
