      The Island of Dr. Moreau Wells’ story of an evil scientist and the madman’s unnatural creations can be read on many different levels, including as pure horror. Many of the reviews correctly identify a Jonathon Swift-like satire of blind faith in religion, science, and class. But, if you’re in the mood to switch off critical thought, the novel pounds with fear. From shipwreck to chase to murder, Wells never slows the pace.Bottom line: Read it as political and social commentary or as unadulterated fright fare.

      I read two stories out of this book. Technically I have not read the entire book. However the two stories i read were great and amazing! Here are my reviews of the stories:The Time Machine - Excellent Read. It took me forever to read it due to it being sooooo detailed! But loved his adventure in the future with the cute little beings and the evil Morlocks. I did not expect the ending to be like that. The Island of Dr. Moreau - I was pleasantly surprised that it was not the same as the Val Kilmer/Marlon Brando movie version. If you don't know, its a story about a man who comes upon an island full of animal/human monstrosities created by a mad doctor. Good story and superb ending. Just like in his other works, he shows how the real life reflects the crazy island Prendick was stranded upon.

      H.G. Wells practically invented science fiction. This collection includes: The Time Machine, The Island of Dr. Moreau, The Invisible Man, The War of the Worlds, The First Men in the Moon, The Food of the Gods, In the Days of the Comet. Anyone who is a fan of SF should read these to understand the beginnings of the genre.

      H.G. Wells is one of the greatest science fiction writers of all time. This collection; which includes The Time Machine, The Island of Dr. Moreau, The Invisible Man, The War of the Worlds, The First Men in the Moon, The Food of the Gods, and In the Days of the Comet; are masterpieces. My favorite stories are The Time Machine and The War of the Worlds, probably because these were some of the first science fiction that I had seen and then read.
