In H. G. Wells dystopian classic, "Men Like Gods," readers are thrust into a thought-provoking narrative that explores the convergence of utopia and dystopia through the lens of social commentary and speculative fiction. The story follows a group of individuals who, after inadvertently crossing into a parallel universe, encounter a society governed by reason and harmony, yet subtly reveals the complexities of human condition and societal structure. Wells employs a narrative style rich in detail, characterized by his characteristic blend of philosophical inquiry and imaginative storytelling, crafting a world that reflects both contemporary concerns of the early 20th century and timeless questions about morality, power, and human nature. H. G. Wells, often celebrated as one of the founding figures of science fiction, was profoundly influenced by the socio-political turbulence of his time, such as the rise of industrialism and the specter of war.

WellsAo keen insights and visionary perspectives make him a pivotal voice in speculative literature, providing readers with an intricate tapestry of ideas that resonate with contemporary societal dilemmas. "Men Like Gods" is an essential read for anyone interested in exploring the interplay between utopia and dystopia, as well as those who appreciate profound philosophical dialogues embedded within the fabric of science fiction.

The War of the Worlds is a science fiction novel by English author H. G. Wells. It was written between 1895 and 1897, and serialised in Pearsons Magazine in the UK and Cosmopolitan magazine in the US in 1897. The full novel was first published in hardcover in 1898 by William Heinemann. The War of the Worlds is one of the earliest stories to detail a conflict between humankind and an extraterrestrial race. The novel is the first-person narrative of an unnamed protagonist in Surrey and his younger brother who escapes to Tillingham in Essex as London and Southern England are invaded by Martians. It is one of the most commented-on works in the science fiction canon.The plot is similar to other works of invasion literature from the same period and has been variously interpreted as a commentary on the theory of evolution, imperialism, and Victorian era fears, superstitions and prejudices. Wells later noted that inspiration for the plot was the catastrophic effect of European colonisation on the Aboriginal Tasmanians. Some historians have argued that Wells wrote the book to encourage his readership to question the morality of imperialism. At the time of publication, it was classified as a scientific romance, like Wellss earlier novel, The Time Machine.

The Time Machine is an 1895 dystopian post-apocalyptic science fiction novella by H. G. Wells about a Victorian scientist known as the Time Traveller who travels approximately 802,701 years into the future. The work is generally credited with the popularization of the concept of time travel by using a vehicle or device to travel purposely and selectively forward or backward through time. The term "time machine", coined by Wells, is now almost universally used to refer to such a vehicle or device.Utilizing a frame story set in then-present Victorian England, Wells text focuses on a recount of the otherwise anonymous Time Travellers journey into the far future. A work of future history and speculative evolution, The Time Machine is interpreted in modern times as a commentary on the increasing inequality and class divisions of Wells era, which he projects as giving rise to two separate human species: the fair, childlike Eloi, and the savage, simian Morlocks, distant descendants of the contemporary upper and lower classes respectively. It is believed that Wells depiction of the Eloi as a race living in plenitude and abandon was inspired by the utopic romance novel News from Nowhere (1890), though Wells universe in the novel is notably more savage and brutal.
