About the Author Often called the father of science fiction, British author Herbert George (H. G.) Wells literary works are notable for being some of the first titles of the science fiction genre, and include such famed titles as The Time Machine, The War of the Worlds, The Island of Doctor Moreau, and The Invisible Man. Despite being fixedly associated with science fiction, Wells wrote extensively in other genres and on many subjects, including history, society and politics, and was heavily influenced by Darwinism. His first book, Anticipations of the Reaction of Mechanical and Scientific Progress Upon Human Life and Thought, offered predictions about what technology and society would look like in the year 2000, many of which have proven accurate. Wells went on to pen over fifty novels, numerous non-fiction books, and dozens of short stories. His legacy has had an overwhelming influence on science fiction, popular culture, and even on technological and scientific innovation. Wells died in 1946 at the age of 79.

Wells is known best by his Science Fiction—War of the Worlds, The Island of Dr. Moreau, The Invisible Man, The Time Machine, and other classics—but he also wrote stories that more properly fit in the "Literature" genre. The New Machiavelli seems to fall into this category.I very much dislike "Literature." This genre has produced many great stories, but so many stories of this genre that I've read seemed boring and pointless, a slice of life best left uncovered. For the most part, this story is no exception. To me, Wells was a genius as a writer, and it shows here, but his tendency to belabor even the smallest observations about his characters, his scenes, or topographical areas leads to a tedium that encourages the reader to put the book down and go watch a movie.With his writing, Wells has the ability to make it all seem real, to often bring the reader to tears, or to make him laugh out loud. This story contains all of that, and some high-flown emotional language into the bargain. Wells held nothing back. That's part of the problem; but it also gives the reader some good moments as well.The most tedious part was the first half of the story. It's written in an autobiographical style (whether based on Wells's actual life, or made up, I have no idea). The interesting part is the childhood, but when it starts into his adulthood, it concerns itself tediously with politics. He's mostly immersed in Socialism of early 1900s England, and uses disturbing Socialist ideas like, "...serve that end, to subdue the undisciplined worker and undisciplined weath to it..." or "An uneducated, underbred, and underfed propertyless man is a man who has lost the possibility of liberty...A man who is swimming hopelessly for life wants nothing but the liberty to get out of the water; he'll give every other liberty away for it—until he gets out."But about halfway through the story Wells's character discovers that it all seems false to him, his way of life, his political views, his marriage, and he switches to the Opposition. This is where the story becomes more interesting. He uses phrases like, "We Liberals have done more mischief through well-intentioned benevolence than all the selfishness in the world could have done."The story ends without a firm resolution of what he is to do with the rest of his life. He's with his mistress—itself an episode extremely well told, as he wars with himself about the propriety and the scandal of it—and they are leaving London, his home, perhaps forever. He has regrets, and he has a bit of joy about the future, and the story leaves it there. In fact, the last few chapters of the story almost make the reading of the story worth while.I rate this one at three out of five stars. I wouldn't read it again, but reading Wells is an experience, and I'm glad I didn't miss this one.

HG Wells' writing has stood the test of time. His stories are still creative and intelligent; entertaining without gore, violence, and gratuitous printed porno scenes.
