He had a machine, a plan, and a spectacular disregard for consequences.
The Time Traveller arrives in the year 802,701 expecting progress. What he finds are two races born from the wreckage of humanity — the delicate, dreamlike Eloi living above ground, and the sinister Morlocks lurking beneath it. Then his machine is stolen. Stranded 800,000 years from home, with no way back and two very strange civilisations standing between him and survival, the Traveller begins to understand what humanity’s future has truly cost. Some questions, it turns out, are better left unanswered.
