Wells's best known works are THE TIME MACHINE (1895), one of the first modern science fiction stories, THE INVISIBLE MAN (1897), and THE WAR OF THE WORLDS (1898). Wells wrote over a hundred of books, about fifty of them novels. "No one would have believed, in the last years of the nineteenth century, that human affairs were being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man's and yet as mortal as his own; that as men busied themselves about their affairs they were scrutinized and studied, perhaps almost as narrowly as a man with a microscope might scrutinize the transient creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water." (from War of the Worlds Along with George Orwell 's Nineteen-Eighty-Four and Aldous Huxley 's Brave New World , which was a pessimistic answer to scientific optimism, Wells's novels are among the classics of science-fiction. Later Wells's romantic and enthusiastic conception of technology turned more doubtful. His bitter side is seen early in the novel BOON (1915), which was a parody of

Darin veröffentlichte er 1888 eine Reihe von Essays mit dem Obertitel »The Chronic Argonauts«. Diese Aufsätze bilden die inhaltliche Basis für Wells' ersten Roman The Time Machine An Invention (1895, dt. Die Zeitmaschine , 1904). Ein englischer Gentleman-Erfinder baut eine Zeitmaschine und reist damit 800.000 Jahre in die Zukunft. Dort wird er mit den letztlichen Auswirkungen des Klassenkampfes konfrontiert: Aus dem unterdrückten Proletariat sind die »Morlocks« entstanden, mutierte ausgebeutete Menschen, die unter der Erde die lebensnotwendigen Maschinen bedienen. Die Klasse der Besitzenden führt als Volk der »Eloi« an der Oberfläche ein Leben in Überfluss und Dekadenz. Beide menschlichen Rassen gehen durch die Abkühlung der Sonne zugrunde. Der Roman ist eine frühe Dystopie, die Samjatin, Huxley und Orwell vorwegnimmt. Durch die Verlegung der geschilderten Welt in die Zukunft musste Wells keine auf Inseln oder in fernen Ländern abgeschottete Gesellschaft erschaffen, um seine Geschichte zu erzählen, sondern konnte eine direkte Linie von den Ereignissen seiner Zeit bis zu ihren Folgen in der Zukunft ziehen.

His early novels, called "scientific romances", invented a number of themes now classic in science fiction in such works as The Time Machine, The Invisible Man, and The War of the Worlds and are often thought of as being influenced by the works of Jules Verne. He also wrote other, non-fantastic novels which have received critical acclaim, including the satire on Edwardian advertising Tono-Bungay and Kipps. Wells also wrote non-fiction. His classic two-volume work The Outline of History (1920) set a new standard and direction for popularised scholarship.

Wells is known as one of the founding literary fathers of science-fictiona label he always resisted. Instead, he called his works "scientific romances," stressing their concrete humanity and de-emphasizing the abstract ideas at play. A prolific and political journalist as well, the outspoken, larger-than-life figure is still best known for a string of books written at the beginning of his career that all toy with ideas of humanity gone scientifically and fantastically awry. Wells was born into British poverty on Sept. 21, 1866, and he was not shy about glorifying his lower-class beginnings. He later won a scholarship to what is now the elite Royal College of Science, where he studied under T.H. Huxley, the esteemed Darwinist. His early exposure to poverty, however, would mark him for the rest of his days; nearly a lifelong Socialist, Wells believed modern civilization, with its profound capitalist class divisions, was doomed, and that Communist ideals were the remedy. Not coincidentally, Wells's first novel, "The Time Machine" (1895), was written to relieve his poverty and serves as a harsh critique of capitalism. In it, a man travels to the future and finds a nightmarish dystopia in which two distinct species have evolved from the ruling and working classes. The novel struck a chord with Victorian England, a heavily industrialized country of Haves and Have-Nots, and became a success. Wells followed "The Time Machine" with "The Island of Dr. Moreau" (1896), "The Invisible Man" (1897), and "The War Between the Worlds" (1898). All were hits and solidified Wells's place in the science-fiction canon; the description in the last of a Martian invasion of earth was so terrifying that when it was adapted as a radio play in 1938 by American Orson Welles as a "real" emergency broadcast, it sent thousands of listeners into a panic.
