Oh, I should grab it off Hoopla too. I read it years ago, but it might be fun for a quick listen - especially since it is the selection this month.

Moving right through this one! The first time I read it, but this time I am doing audio.

Interesting how, while it is a sci fi book about time travel, it is also very much a vehicle for Wells to give his opinion on where he thought society might be going based on what was going on during his life time. Lots of political and sociological commentary.

Valerie (darthval) | 45 comments I thought this would be pretty dry, but enjoyed it quite a bit. Simply great story telling.
