Wells Lot of 46 Classic Audiobooks in 46 MP3 CDs Herbert George “H. G.” Wells (21 September 1866 – 13 August 1946) was an English writer, now best known for his work in the science fiction genre. He was also a prolific writer in many other genres, including contemporary novels, history, politics and social commentary, even writing textbooks and rules for war games. Wells is one person sometimes called “The Father of Science Fiction”, as are Jules Verne and Hugo Gernsback. His most notable science fiction works include The War of the Worlds, The Time Machine, The Invisible Man and The Island of Doctor Moreau. Ann VeronicaRead by Joy ChanRunning Time:10:24:56 in 1 MP3 Audio CDGenre(s): Culture & Heritage Fiction, RomanceAnn Veronica was a controversial book detailing the development of a naive schoolgirl into a “New Woman”. When it was published, the Spectator described it as a “poisonous book … capable of poisoning the minds of those who read it.” Although it is unlikely to offend modern listeners in this way, this novel addresses many feminist issues that are still relevant today. A Dozen Short Stories from H. G. WellsRead by Krista ZaleskiRunning Time:03:49:20 in 1 MP3 Audio CDGenre(s): Literary Fiction, Single Author CollectionsTwelve of H. G. Wells’ early short stories (1894-1925) originally printed in various magazines and papers. His earlier works delve into the human condition, looked at through a humorous lens. Love, romance, infidelity, parenthood and more are the subjects of the various stories, often told with a wry twist of humor. A Family ElopementHow Gabriel Became ThompsonHow Pingwill Was RoutedLe Mari TerribleThe ReconciliationThe Rajah’s TreasureA Perfect Gentleman on WheelsMr Marshall’s DoppelgangerThe Loyalty of Esau CommonMy First AeroplaneLittle Mother Up the MörderbergThe Pearl of Love A Modern UtopiaRead by Alisson Veldhuis, Christopher Tayler, Daniel George, Bill Boerst, Elena, Felicity C, Caeliveres, V. Lobacham and Calm DragonRunning Time:10:11:01 in 1 MP3 Audio CDGenre(s): General Fiction, Political ScienceH. G. Wells’s proposal for social reform was the formation of a world state, a concept that would increasingly preoccupy him throughout the remainder of his life. One of his most ambitious early attempts at portraying a world state was A Modern Utopia (1905). A Modern Utopia was intended as a hybrid between fiction and ‘philosophical discussion’. Like most utopists, he has indicated a series of modifications which in his opinion would increase the aggregate of human happiness. Basically, Wells’ idea of a perfect world would be if everyone were able to live a happy life. This book is written with an intimate knowledge of former ideal commonwealths and is a conscious attempt to describe a utopia that is not utopian. A Short History of the WorldRead by Kristine BekereRunning Time:13:51:48 in 1 MP3 Audio CDGenre(s): *Non-fiction, HistoryA Short History of the World is a non-fictional historic work by English author H. G. Wells, largely inspired by Wells’s earlier 1919 work The Outline of History. The book summarizes the scientific knowledge of the time regarding the history of Earth and life. It starts with its origins, goes on to explain the development of the Earth and life on Earth, reaching primitive thought and the development of humankind from the Cradle of Civilization. The book ends with the outcome of the First World War, the Russian famine of 1921, and the League of Nations in 1922. In 1934 Albert Einstein recommended the book for the study of history as a means of interpreting progress in civilization. A Story of the Days to ComeRead by Dennis Blak, Lucretia B., A. J. Carroll and Mike PeltonRunning Time:03:35:27 in 1 MP3 Audio CDGenre(s): Science FictionSet in London in the early 22nd century, this novella depicts the troubles of two lovers, Denton and Elizabeth. Elizabeth is a well-to-do woman with many connections, but Denton is only a middle-class worker. Elizabeth’s father strongly disapproves of the match, and orders a hypnotist to hypnotize his daughter into thinking that she is in love with another. When the scheme is found out, Denton and Elizabeth elope, leading to a string of events that take them from the top of London society to horrifying depths of “underneath” London. A Story of the Stone AgeRead by James ChristopherRunning Time:2:10:18 in 1 MP3 Audio CDGenre(s): Fantastic FictionThis story is of a time beyond the memory of man, before the beginning of history. AnticipationsRead by John Trevithick, Christopher Tayler and TopazRunning Time:8:31:20 in 1 MP3 Audio CDGenre(s): Philosophy, Political Science, PsychologyWells considered this book one of his most important, a natural follow-up to such works as his Man of the Year Million and The Time Machine. His goal was to get people to think and act in new ways. The book starts with a look at how humans get along socially and how they carry out their business ventures. It then discusses how these elements influence others, such as politics, the world of work, and education. H. G. tried to make clear how the current social order was disintegrating without preparing another to take its place. He then traced the roots of democracy, which in its present state he saw as unworkable. Instead, he proposed a new republic. He also critiqued modern warfare.

Wells here gives us humorous and light-hearted pieces on a wide variety of intriguing topics from chess to death. Each essay is a gem of wit and delight. Floor GamesRead by Mark F. SmithRunning Time:0:45:13 in 1 MP3 Audio CDGenre(s): GamesH.G. Wells had so much fun playing with his children on the floor of their playroom, he decided to write a jovial little book to inspire other parents in their pursuit of quality time with the kids. While the raw materials available from hobby stores of his day were woefully short of the variety and quality of what can be bought easily now, he and his sons created their own worlds to rule. This short work describes two games of imagination played out upon the floor of his home – an archipelago of islands, and a thoroughly integrated city, conveniently organized with two mayoral positions for his sons “G.P.W.” and “F.R.W.” While the toy people appearing in their worlds were often of martial nature, Wells decided to leave description of military games to a later book: “Little Wars.” God, the Invisible KingRead by William Tomcho, Mike Pelton, T Michael Burke and V. LobachamRunning Time:4:34:33 in 1 MP3 Audio CDGenre(s): *Non-fiction, ReligionWells wrote in his book God the Invisible King that his idea of God did not draw upon the traditional religions of the world: “This book sets out as forcibly and exactly as possible the religious belief of the writer. [Which] is a profound belief in a personal and intimate God.” Later in the work he aligns himself with a “renascent or modern religion … neither atheist nor Buddhist nor Mohammedan nor Christian … [that] he has found growing up in himself.” In the Days of the CometRead by Steve McDaniel, Lewis, Felicity C, Richard Kilmer, Bear Schacht and Mike PeltonRunning Time:9:50:23 in 1 MP3 Audio CDGenre(s): Science FictionWilliam (“Willie”) is a student living in the British town of Clayton.

Throughout the novel there is present in the sky a large comet which gives off a green glow. As Willie prepares to shoot the lovers, two battleships appear and begin shelling the coast, causing Willie to nearly lose his targets. As the comet enters the atmosphere, it gives off a green gas which envelopes everyone including Willie, who falls asleep. Willie wakes up a changed man. He is able to reason so clearly that he realizes the foolishness of his plan for revenge. Other people have changed too. Our hero marvels at how humankind has risen to new levels of vision and understanding.

But even now the consequences of being wealthy are not easy to live with. Little WarsRead by Mark F. SmithRunning Time:1:44:27 in 1 MP3 Audio CDGenre(s): War & Military, GamesA Game for Boys from twelve years of age to one hundred and fifty and for that more intelligent sort of girl who likes boys’ games and books.

Barnstaple’s traveling companions, however, quickly contrive a scheme to remake the utopia in the image of their twentieth-century world. Mr. Britling Sees It ThroughRead by Peter EastmanRunning Time:17:10:18 in 1 MP3 Audio CDGenre(s): Literary Fiction, War & Military Fiction, Published 1900 onward”Mr. Britling Sees It Through” is H. G. Wells’ attempt to make sense of World War I. It begins with a lighthearted account of an American visiting England for the first time, but the outbreak of war changes everything. Day by day and month by month, Wells chronicles the unfolding events and public reaction as witnessed by the inhabitants of one house in rural Essex. Each of the characters tries in a different way to keep their bearings in a world suddenly changed beyond recognition. This book was published in 1916 while the war was still in progress, so no clear resolution was possible. Wells did not know how long the war would last or which side would ultimately win, but he hoped that somehow, something good might eventually come of it.

It is narrated by George Ponderevo, a science student who is drafted in to help with the promotion of Tono-Bungay, a harmful stimulant disguised as a miraculous cure-all, the creation of his uncle Edward. The quack remedy Tono-Bungay seems to have been based upon the patent medicines Carter’s Little Liver Pills and Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People…. As the tonic prospers, George experiences a swift rise in social status, elevating him to riches and opportunities that he had never imagined, nor indeed desired. The novel displays Edward’s social climbing satirically, and also George’s discomfort at rising in social class. The hero’s personal life is narrated with unusual frankness for an Edwardian novel…. The empire eventually overextends itself and then collapses. George tries unsuccessfully to save his uncle and eventually ends up designing battleships for the highest bidder. The Country of the Blind, and Other StoriesRead by Peter YearsleyRunning Time:18:02:30 in 1 MP3 Audio CDGenre(s): Single Author CollectionsA collection of Wells’ short stories, with a short introductory essay by the author- “Essentially it is a miscellany of inventions, many of which were very pleasant to write; and its end is more than attained if some of them are refreshing and agreeable to read. I have now re-read them all, and I am glad to think I wrote them. I like them, but I cannot tell how much the association of old happiness’s gives them a flavour for me. I make no claims for them and no apology; they will be read as long as people read them.” (From the author’s Introduction.)H.G. Wells is best known as a writer of science fiction; “The Country of the Blind and Other Stories” is a collection only incidentally touched by science.IntroductionThe Jilting of JaneThe ConeThe Stolen BacillusThe Flowering of the Strange OrchidIn the Avu ObservatoryAepyornis IslandThe Remarkable Case of Davidson’s EyesThe Lord of the DynamosThe MothThe Treasure in the ForestThe Story of the late Mr. ElveshamUnder the KnifeThe Sea RaidersThe Obliterated ManThe Plattner StoryThe Red RoomThe Purple PileusA Slip Under the MicroscopeThe Crystal EggThe StarThe Man Who Could Work MiraclesA Vision of JudgementJimmy Goggles the godMiss Winchelsea’s HeartA Dream of ArmageddonThe Valley of SpidersThe New AcceleratorThe Truth about PyecraftThe Magic ShopThe Empire of the AntsThe Door in the WallThe Country of the BlindThe Beautiful Suit The Discovery Of The FutureRead by David WalesRunning Time:01:02:03 in 1 MP3 Audio CDGenre(s): ModernThe Discovery of the Future is a 1902 philosophical lecture by H. G. Wells that argues for the knowability of the future. It was originally delivered to the Royal Institution on January 24, 1902. Wells begins by distinguishing between “two divergent types of mind,” one that judges and attaches importance principally to what has happened in the past and one that judges and attaches importance principally to what will happen in the future. To the former he attributes the adjectives “legal or submissive,” “passive,” and “oriental,” and to the latter the adjectives “legislative, creative, organizing, or masterful,” and “active,” calling it “a more modern and much less abundant type of mind.”… Confessing himself to be among “those who believe entirely in the forces behind the individual” rather than in individuals themselves as determining causes, Wells argues that there is “no reason why we should not aspire to, and discover and use, safe and serviceable, generalizations upon countless issues in the human destiny.” Wells devotes the last part of his text to speculations about “the question what is to come after man,” considering it “the most persistently fascinating and the most insoluble question in the whole world.” He concludes with a statement of personal faith “in the coherency and purpose in the world and in the greatness of human destiny.” The Door in the Wall, and Other StoriesRead by J.

The story begins as the Invisible Man, with a bandaged face and a heavy coat and gloves, takes a train to lodge in a country inn whilst he tries to discover the antidote and make himself visible again.

In the process, he tries to make sense of a lifetime’s experiences and distill some kind of wisdom from them. It is quite simply a beautiful book, both inspiring and heartbreaking The Plattner Story and OthersRead by Penny Witt, Nancy Beard, Grace Wereley-Bross, Jeremy Clark, Ron Altman, Terry Kroenung, Ben Tucker, Christine Rottger, Yoganandh T, Michael Maggs, Robert Tunick, Andrew Gaunce and The SecondRunning Time:08:42:30 in 1 MP3 Audio CDGenre(s): Science FictionA collection of short science fiction stories, written by H.G.

The book is to a great extent autobiographical. H. G. had read some brilliantly composed articles by a writer who wrote under the name Rebecca West. In one piece she called H. G. “pseudo-scientific.” He contacted her and asked what she meant. When they met for lunch, it was the beginning of a very intense and volatile relationship. Soon she was pregnant, so he divided his time between her and his wife Jane with their two sons. After World War I, Rebecca became more demanding. She wanted him to divorce Jane. Finally, in 1923 Wells told Rebecca she should either get serious about her writing or break off their relationship. The criticism stung her. After a speaking tour in the U.S., she returned newly independent, and the two went their separate ways. In this novel H. G. based the character Martin on Rebecca, who both mesmerized and repelled him.

Still, a couple of the more thoughtful had reservations about branding the demonstration an outright trickery. And what about the nearly-complete full-size Machine in the Traveler’s laboratory?

G. Wells’s writing career. Having withdrawn from British politics to spend more time on his own ideas, he published twelve books between 1901 and 1911, including this one. while many British citizens were surprised by the advent of World War I, Wells had already written prophetically about such a conflict. War in the Air predicted use of airplanes in modern war.

The War That Will End WarRead by Peter ThomlinsonRunning Time:02:40:42 in 1 MP3 Audio CDGenre(s): *Non-fictionAbout the First World War, and the author’s conclusions. Whether or not you agree with these articles/essays, H G Wells does make many valid points about the war, and it’s effect on people, especially in Britain. I suppose he cannot be blamed for getting the concept and the title wrong, in hindsight, as there were barely 22 years to pass before the Second World War with Germany began. Wells highlights the corruption both in Britain and Germany during the terrible conflict, and the humanitarian price which had to be paid. He felt it his duty to keep people informed, at a time when only newspapers were available. It was a period, around 1914-1918, that pre-dated radio and TV, and the mass communication which is available to us all today. Historically I believe it stands as a testament to that period.

The World Set FreeRead by Adam MarsivichRunning Time:8:10:23 in 1 MP3 Audio CDGenre(s): Science FictionThe World Set Free is a novel published in 1914 by H. G. Wells. The book is considered a prophetical novel foretelling the advent of nuclear weapons.A constant theme in Wells’s work, such as his 1901 nonfiction book Anticipations, was the role of energy and technological advance as a determinant of human progress.The novel opens: “The history of mankind is the history of the attainment of external power. Man is the tool-using, fire-making animal.” Scientists of the day were well aware that the slow natural radioactive decay of elements like radium continues for thousands of years, and that while the rate of energy release is negligible, the total amount released is huge. Wells used this as the basis for his story.

G. Wells wrote 29 short essays that were serialized in the New York World and other newspapers. This book is a collection of those essays. They are not a record or description of the Conference, but the impressions of one visitor. Wells noted that the failed League of Nations was the first American initiative toward an organized world peace, and in its absence “the American mind has produced this second experiment, which has been tried with the loosest of constitutions and the most severely defined and limited of aims. Instead of a world constitution we have had a world conversation.”The essays relate “one observer’s conviction of how things can be done, and of how they need to be done, if our civilization is indeed to be rescued from the dangers that encompass it and set again upon the path of progress.” While history would not bear out all of Wells’ various expressions of optimism and pessimism, his vision of world peace nevertheless remains relevant today.
